Saddle
Point over the tip of the saddle toward the top tube and/or battery
(Fig. 47) to check that the saddle is not twisted. If necessary, open the
clamping, realign the saddle and retighten the clamping.

Bearings, bolted connections, components and add-on parts
Let the CS bounce on the ground from a small height. If there is any rat-
tling, check where it comes from. Check the bearings, the bolted connec-
tions and the proper seat of the battery (Fig. 48) and the connector, if
necessary. Also check all add-on parts, such as the rear rack, the centre
rack, the transport box, the child seat by trying to gently move the parts
back and forth to check their tight seat.

If the parts are not tight, realign the components, if necessary and gently
tighten the bolts until they are fastened securely.
Finally, take a good look at the whole CS to detect any deformations, col-
our changes or cracks.
