Adjusting the bike to the rider
7.3 Seat height
In order to transfer the pedal force effectively
to the pedals, you have to set your seat to the
appropriate height.
The ideal height is if you are sitting on your
FLYER, and the crank is in a vertical position and
you place your foot with the heel on the pedal.
Now the bottom leg
should be stretched.
If this is not the case,
dismount, adjust the
seat in the required
direction and attempt
to do the same again.
Always close quick releases in
such a way that the end of the
lever is close to bicycle and is
pointing backwards/downwards. In this
way you can avoid unintentionally open-
ing the lever.

STOP
Please check that all quick re-
leases are securely fastened,
even if your FLYER was only left
unattended for a short time.
You can only set off on your ride if all
quick releases are securely fastened.
There are markings on the seat
post which show how far you
can pull it out of the frame.
Never pull the seat post further out than
this maximum length marking! If the
seat post has to be pulled out further
to achieve the correct seating height,
please talk to your FLYER retailer. Never
ride with a seat post extended further
than the maximum marker as this could
result in serious falls and injury.

Allow somebody to aid you in
doing this or lean against a wall
or railing.
