Riding Position Adjustment
The correct riding position is critical to achieve optimal comfort, safety and pedaling efficiency.
Pacific Cycles folding frames and components have a wide range of adjustment to cover all
size requirements with one frame.
The correct seat height will maintain a slight bend of the leg at the bottom of the pedal stroke. If
adjusted correctly at this height, the hips should also not rock from side to side to reach the
bottom of the pedal stroke. If hip rocking occurs, lower the seat so it does not continue to do so.
Ensure the seat-post is not extended beyond the maximum height indicated by markings on the
seat-post.
The cockpit length and position is adjustable with multiple stem positions or adjusting the seat
on its rails. Set the distance from the seat to the handlebars for the desired comfort. Please
note the adjustment extremes indicated on the seat rails.
