Adjusting the bicycle
Handlebars
Desired handlebar setting
As a rule of thumb for determining the distance
between the handlebar and the saddle is that you
should be able to touch the handlebars with your fist
while you hold your elbow at the point of the saddle.
Note that this rule of thumb should be seen as a
guideline, because this setting is very personal. Note
also that a too big distance between the saddle and the
handlebars, often can be the cause of neck, back, and
shoulder complaints. We recommend that you adjust
the saddle and handlebars to your wishes together with
your dealer.
Adjusting the handlebar - TranzX stem
Most Premium models have been equipped with a
TranzX stem, which can be adjusted in height and angle
by loosening just one bolt. This bolt is located at the
front top side of the stem, see picture on the right.
After loosening the bolt, adjust the handlebar and steer
to the desired position. If you are satisfied, tighten the
bolt again with a torque of 10-12Nm.
Do not forget to tighten the bolts after
adjustments and make sure that your
handlebars are attached firmly again.
