When riding, your hips should remain stationary and your knee should only bend about 20-25° when the pedal is all the way down.
The Saddle should be roughly parallel to the ground, but if it’s not comfortable, tip the Nose down to relieve pressure on the crotch or
up to distribute your weight over a greater area of the Saddle. The seat should be tilted no more than 5° up or down.
Moving the Saddle backward works your glutes harder and forward works your quads harder. Generally, the front of the knee should
not pass the Pedal Spindle. Once comfortable, check your saddle height again and adjust as necessary.
Do not raise the Seatpost above the minimum insertion line etched on the post. Doing so may result in post/frame failure
and serious injury. If proper saddle height cannot be achieved without raising the post above this line, you need a longer
Seatpost. Similarly, do not lower the Seatpost below the maximum insert mark when riding. The lower exposed portion
may hit objects on the pavement and cause a riding hazard.
Stem
Models fitted with Andros Stems are adjustable in angle and height without tools. Please refer to the included manual for information on
how to adjust the Stem positions.
Handlebar orientation
Rotate your Handlebar so that your palms are supported and that your fingers can easily reach the Brake and Gear Levers. For Handlebar
adjustment procedures, refer to the Stem manual included with your Tern.
Be sure to check the following before every ride:
Electrical System
Check that the battery is seated properly in the carrier on the frame and fully plugged in.
Check the controller display for any warnings or error messages. Resolve the error before riding.
Check that the battery is adequately charged for the length of ride you are planning to do.
Make sure the front and rear lights are illuminated when they are actuated and remain on when the bike is at a standstill.
Mechanical
As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subjected to wear and high stresses. Different materials and components
might react to wear or stress fatigue in different ways. If the design life of a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly
fail, possibly causing injuries to the rider. Any form of crack, scratches, or change of coloring in highly stressed areas indicate
that the life of the component has been reached and it should be replaced.
