To raise or lower seatpost,
loosen 13mm nut and retighten
when height is adjusted.
To determine proper saddle
height, position right pedal at the
bottom of its revolution, aligned
with the seat tube. While sitting
on saddle, place your heel on right
pedal. Your leg should be fully
extended (5-B).
Adjust saddle height if
necessary and repeat. Now
place the ball of your foot
directly over the center of the
pedal (normal riding position).
This should result in the
correct bend at the knee.
