6.11 Raising the kickstand
 Use your foot to raise kickstand completely
before setting off.
6.12 Using the saddle
 Do not wear studded jeans as these can
damage the saddle covering.
 Wear dark clothes for your first few rides as
new leather saddles can stain clothing.
Riders often experience pain in the sitting bones,
especially beginners or at the start of the season,
after a longer break. The periosteum around the
sitting bones is irritated as it is unaccustomed to
the chafing. To reduce chafing:

wear cycling shorts with shock-absorbing seat
padding
 use a chamois cream or ointment.
 The sensation of pain is reduced after five to
six rides, although it may increase again after
two to three weeks of riding.
6.12.1 Using the leather saddle
Sunlight and UV light tarnish the colour and cause
the leather to dry out and fade.
 Park pedelec in the shade.
 Always use a saddle cover.
Moisture may cause the leather to detach from
material beneath and mould may form.
 If the leather saddle gets wet, dry saddle
completely.
 Always use a saddle cover.
6.13 Using the pedals
 The ball of the foot is placed on the pedal when
riding and pedalling.
