3.1.2 Saddle adjustment
You can find our selection of saddle forms on
page 10 of these Instructions for use.
Saddle height
The height of the saddle can be adjus-
ted on the frame saddle tube (
A
) by pulling
the saddle post in or out. In order to ad-
just the height, please loosen the clamp
(
B
) and bring the saddle into the requi-
red height. Align the saddle and tigh-
ten the clamp (
B
) so tightly that the saddle support no longer twists.
The saddle height is to be re-set based on the inseam length. Here any contrac-
tures of the knees must be taken into consideration. The saddle height should be
inspected when the user is sitting on the saddle. The leg extension should
not be 0°. In the upper position of the pedal, the knee flexion should not be
more than 90°. Should it not be possible to achieved this setting through
the saddle height, it is possible to undertake further settings through crank
shortening (see
point 4.9 - 4.11
).
Adjusting the saddle horizontally
Every saddle (except for the unicycle saddle)
can be minimally adjusted horizontally. To do
this, loosen the nuts (
D
) with a size 13 wrench
and push the caliper block (
C
) forwards or
backwards on the seat stays.
Adjusting the saddle with t-saddle post ho-
rizontally
In order to check the horizontal saddle positi-
on, turn the pedal crank horizontally forwards
and put the foot (while the rider is sitting on
the saddle) onto the pedal. Once the lower
leg is vertical, the saddle position is correct.
You can also loosen the two nuts (
D
) under
the saddle using a size 13 wrench, push the
saddle to the rear or forwards and re-tighten
the nuts.
During adjustment, the saddle post may not be
pulled out over the respective marking, as in this case sufficient clamping can
-
not be guaranteed. The markings are in part designed differently.
After each adjustment, please retighten all screw connections!
