GEOMETRY

 

The F5 Trail comes in one size that has been engineered to suit a variety of 

riders at different heights.

 

On the following page, you will find a geometry chart with the measurements 

for the most important parts of your F5 Trail frame. Measurements are given in both 

Standard and Metric units for your convenience.

 

Please ensure that your eBike is properly sized for you before riding. If  

 

your  eBike is too small/too large, you may lose control and fall. 

 

The most important part of fit is ensuring that the seat position can be  

 

adjusted so that the seated rider’s feet can touch the ground. This is 

 

especially important for minors/children. 

 

 

 

If your eBike does not fit, please make the appropriate adjustments to   

 

ensure a proper and safe fit before riding.
