Adjusting the bike to the rider
Your FLYER was carefully assembled by your
specialist retailer. If you have to remove the
pedals, such as during transport, you have
to ensure that the right and left pedal are in-
stalled on the correct sides when you re-fit
them. You can recognise which pedal belongs
on which side from the screws which turn in
opposite directions. Usually, an “R” is em-
bossed on the right pedal with an “L” on the
left. Screw the right pedal clockwise and the
left pedal anti-clockwise into the cranks.
7.1 Setting up the seating position
To use the FLYER safely and comfortably, the
seat, handlebars and stem have to be set up to
your physical dimensions and desired seating
position.

7. Adjusting the bike to the rider
If you use system pedals which
hold the shoe on the pedal using
a special mechanism, practice
using them first in a safe place before
taking to public roads. Using so-called
“click pedals” which are unfamiliar to
you can result in falls and injury. Please
read the operating manuals from the
shoe and pedal manufacturer. These
will also contain an explanation of how
to adjust the amount of effort needed to
release the shoe from the pedal.
Only allow specialists to work
on your handlebars and stem,
do not attempt to do this work
yourself. These are components which
are crucial for your safety, so incorrect
work and tools in this area of the bike
could lead to serious falls.

Pedals have to be screwed in
with the correct spanner, usu-
ally a 15 mm spanner. Please
adhere to the correct torque when
screwing the pedals in, see chap. 33.3,
“Torques for screwed connections”.
Ensure that the pedals are fitted
straight. If they are fitted at an angle,
there is a danger of breaking and of
having a fall!
