3.4 Seat height adjustment - theory
The seat height must be adjusted correctly. Ask your dealer to do so before your first trip. Alternatively, you can
also adjust the seat height yourself as follows.
Determination of the correct seat height for the driver
There are several ways to determine the correct seat height, the following is a description of the method to be
used without any additional aids: Sit down in the saddle and stretch one leg. Place the foot with the heel on the
pedal, which is at the lowest point of the crank revolution. The knee should now be almost pushed through. If
you are sitting on the saddle in this position, it has the right height.
Of course, do not drive with your legs stretched. If you put your foot on the pedal in the correct driving position
(footballs with a toe base joint above the pedal axle), the knee remains slightly angled even at the lowest point
of the crank revolution with the saddle height set correctly. A short practice session is enough to find out if the
saddle is too high. If the pelvis tilts to the left and right at the rhythm of pedaling, the saddle is too high. If the
saddle is too low, you will notice this only after many kilometres, mostly due to knee pain.
How to adjust the seat height - Practice:
The seat height can be adjusted by loosening the quick-release or the Allen screw for the seat post.
Set the saddle to the desired height. DO NOT place the saddle ON ANY OCCASION higher than the minimum
insertion mark on the seat post.

Push the lever of the quick release lever towards the frame until it is closed again. The lever must not protrude
to prevent you from getting injured. The lever is securely secured when it requires a certain amount of force to
push it into the closed position. You can see the appropriate amount of force by the fact that the lever leaves an
impression on your palm when you squeeze it. A properly closed quick-release can no longer be moved, except
by re-opening it using the procedure described above. If you can move the mechanism easily, open the lever of
the quick-release, turn the locknut another 180º and try again. If the seat post should be clamped with a
hexagon socket screw (INBUS), tighten the screw with the specified tightening torque.
After adjusting the saddle height, check that the saddle cannot be turned in any direction.
A saddle that is not properly secured can cause serious or even fatal injuries. Make sure that the saddle fixation
bolt (saddle support - saddle) is tightened to the specified torque.
Carrier:
Your vehicle may have a luggage carrier.
The maximum load capacity is 10 kg, unless the carrier indicates a higher load capacity.
Make sure that the luggage is securely secured on the rack and cannot fall off while driving. Make sure that
loose straps or other objects cannot get caught in the spokes while driving.
Do not load the carrier.
The vehicle is not designed or approved for the transport of a second person or a child without a child seat.
The permissible total weight of your A2B must not be exceeded. The maximum permissible total weight is
specified in the specification.
Distribute the weight of the luggage or items to be transported evenly on both sides of the rack.
Note that luggage or other loads on the rack will change the driving behaviour of your A2B. This applies in
particular to the steering and braking characteristics.
Failure to observe these instructions may result in serious or even fatal injury and/or damage to property.
At the end of your first journey
If you have any questions or have the impression that your A2B is not yet optimally adjusted and tuned to you,
we recommend that you consult your dealer before continuing to use your A2B.
