Improperly adjusted seat height could affect the rider’s ability
to reach the handlebar and pedals may result in an unexpected
movement, loss of control, and serious injury or death. Follow
these guidelines when adjusting the seat height. Always
ensure the seat post minimum insertion marks are below the
quick-release seat clamp and cannot be seen. Ensure the seat
clamp is locked and the seat cannot move.
