CORRECT FRAME SIZING:
When selecting a new bicycle, the correct choice of frame size is a very important safety
consideration. The ideal clearance will vary between types of bicycles and rider preference. This
makes straddling the frame when off the saddle easier and safer in situations such as sudden
traffic stops. Women can use a man’s bicycle to determine the correct size women’s model.
THERE SHOULD BE A CLEARANCE OF NO LESS THAN
1-2 INCHES BETWEEN THE GROIN AREA OF THE
INTENDED RIDER AND THE TOP TUBE OF THE BICYCLE,
WHILE THE RIDER STRADDLES THE BICYCLE WITH
BOTH FEET FLAT ON THE GROUND.
THE SEAT POST “MINIMUM INSERTION” / “MAXIMUM
HEIGHT” MARK SHOULD NOT BE VISIBLE WHEN THE
SEAT POST IS INSERTED INTO THE SEAT MAST OF
THE BIKE. DO NOT RAISE THE SEAT POST BEYOND
THIS MARK. THE SEAT POST OR FRAME MAY BREAK
CAUSING YOU TO LOSE CONTROL AND FALL. ALWAYS
CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE SEAT POST ADJUSTING
MECHANISM IS TIGHTENED SECURELY BEFORE RIDING.
