2- ADJUSTMENTS/ASSEMBLY:
2.1 Saddle adjustment:
6 mm Allen Key
2.1.1 Angle:
Loosen the nut under the saddle.
Adjust the angle of the saddle in order to find your most comfortable position. Tighten the nut under the
saddle, with a maximum tightening torque of 13 Nm.
2.1.2 Height:
The power-assisted bicycle enables you to opt for a lower saddle position than on a classic bike. With power
assistance, you expend less effort and can be seated in a lower position for improved safety. The required
user (cyclist) height for optimal utilisation of the bike ranges from 1.65 to 1.85 m. So, adjust your saddle
height to the correct sitting position as follows:
Loosen the nut on the seat clamp:
Wearing suitable cycling shoes, sit on the saddle, place one of the pedals in the lowest position, rest one heel
on the pedal, and your leg should rest normally on the pedal without being stretched. Raise or lower the
saddle to get the correct height. While pedalling backwards, you should not have to move your hips from side
to side.
To calculate the height, you can also use the SH (Seat Height) formula = 0.885xIL (inside leg measurement). To
measure your inside leg, stand barefoot with your feet five centimetres apart. Without applying too much
pressure, place a pole or stick at horizontally at groin height and then measure the height from the stick to the
ground. This will give you the IL (inside leg) measurement.
Tighten the seat clamp (6 Nm).
