HANDLING
Sitting position
It is very important that the bike is correctly adjusted, from the point of view of both comfort and
safety. There is information on the following pages on how you adjust your sitting position to make is
comfortable, safe and effective.
Saddle adjustment
Slacken the nut that attaches the saddle to the saddle pillar so that you can push the saddle
backwards or forwards.
Adjust it to the desired position. The saddle angle can also be adjusted. We recommend that the
saddle is horizontal.
Adjust the saddle height by slackening the clamp bolt attaching the saddle pillar to the seat tube.
Position
the saddle pillar at the desired height and tighten the clamp bolt.
IMPORTANT!
• The saddle pillar must be lower than the maximum height indicator. The maximum height
indicator must not be visible.
• Tighten the saddle pillar’s clamp bolt and nut to 30 Nm using a 6 mm Allen key or a 13 mm hex
key. Check that the saddle pillar is securely attached by attempting to twist the saddle by hand.
You must not be able to twist the saddle.
• Never cycle if the bike or saddle pillar is not properly tightened.
Different saddle pillars are used for different types of saddle, which is why the attachments vary.
Contact the retailer if you are unsure of how the saddle should be assembled.
Saddle angle
The saddle should preferably be horizontal. You can change the saddle angle, but the saddle should
usually be horizontal. If you sit best with the saddle at a great angle, you should check if you can
change any other setting instead.
