The G Plus Mariner includes a high quality aluminum alloy suspension seat post. The pre-load firmness of the
suspension travel can be adjusted (you will need to use the 6mm hex key included with your G Plus multi-
piece tool kit). To adjust the firmness, remove the seat post as explained in the above section. Located at the
base and underside of the seat post is an adjusting cap. Loosen the cap counter clockwise if you prefer to
soften the ride (do not allow the thread of the cap to be exposed past the end of the seat post). If you prefer to
increase firmness, tighten the cap clockwise until you reach the desired firmness level. (SEE PHOTO BELOW)

Adjusting the handlebar
The handlebar of the G Plus Mariner can be adjusted instantaneously for height preference. Locate the quick
release lever of the handlebar stem’s clamp and open the lever away from handlebar stem. You can slide the
handlebar up or down to the desired height. Once the preferred height is established, close the quick release lever
to tighten the clamp. Check for tightness of the clamp and test the handlebar for slipping in either the upwards or
downwards position. If the clamp is loose, open the quick release clamp lever and tighten the clamp bolt found
opposite the quick release lever. Tighten sufficiently allowing for the lever to close properly and clamp the
handlebar tight. Do not overextend the handlebar past the minimum insertion mark.
CAUTION:
The handlebar stem quick release clamp must be checked for tightness to ensure the handlebar will
not accidentally slid into the steering tube when riding. This can cause a rider to lose balance and may result in a fall.
WARNING:
The handlebar includes a minimum insertion mark. It is important you do not allow the handlebar to
be clamped below this mark. This mark must be inserted into the handlebar stem and not be visible above the quick
release clamp. If clamping below this mark, it can cause the handlebar to fall out, failure to follow this warning could
result in serious injury or death.
