TRIKE SET UP
SEAT AND BOOM ADJUSTMENT - KOLT AND KOBRA MODELS
Slide the boom into the shortest position.
By using the different hole positions in the seat stay adjusters and the sliding seat clamp you can adjust the angle and position of the seat on
the frame.
Sit in the seat and adjust the boom length so that your right leg is straight with no bend at the knee when the right pedal is at its furthest point
and your heel is on the pedal (Photo 15). This will ensure that when you are cycling and you have the ball of your foot on the pedal, you will
have a slight bend at the knee (Photo 16). If you cannot reach the pedal then move the seat forward by extending the seat stays and sliding
the seat clamp forward on the frame. When you are happy with your final position, tighten the boom bolts, seat stay bolts and seat clamp
bolts.
Note: Never extend the boom beyond the etched line on the boom surface.
The lumbar support position is adjustable. Loosen the two clamps at the rear of the seat and move them up or down the seat frame to give
the most comfortable position.
SEAT AND BOOM ADJUSTMENT
– KOYOTE MODEL
Slide the boom into the shortest position.
Sit in the seat and adjust the seat back position and boom length so that your right leg is straight with no bend at the knee when the right
pedal is at its furthest point and your heel is on the pedal (Photo 15). If you cannot reach the pedal then move the seat back into the forward
set of holes in the seat frame base. Adjust the seat angle by repositioning the seat stay bolts into an alternative threaded hole in the seat stay
adjusters. When you are happy with your final position, tighten the boom bolts, seat stay bolts and seat clamp bolts. (See Drawing 5).
HANDLE BAR SET UP
– ALL MODELS
Sit in the seat and set the handlebars to a comfortable reach and angle, making sure your hands are clear of the tyres. Tighten the handlebar
clamps
Note: The maximum extension of the handlebars is 10mm .
CHAIN LENGTH ADJUSTMENT
– ALL MODELS
Ensure that the chain is on the largest sprocket on the rear cassette and the largest front chain ring.
Remove the quick link and overlap the chain until the rear derailleur is pulled fully forward. Add four links to this position and then cut the
chain. You should end up with two “male” ends into which you can connect the quick link connector. (See Photo 18).
FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
Refer to Photo 17. Place the trike on level ground and measure between the inside of the front tyres in the positions shown (A and B).
Loosen the lock nuts at either end of the steering rod (1 x Left & 1 x Right hand thread). Turn the rod until the measurement between the front
and rear of the tyres is equal. Now retighten the lock nuts.
