Adjusting the saddle height
3.2.1 Determining the correct saddle height
1. Sit on the pedelec and at the same time lean against a wall.
2. Turn the foot pedal on the opposite side to the wall to its lowest point.
3. Place your heel on the pedal. Your leg should be fully extended.
4. If your leg is not fully extended when your heel is
on the pedal, raise the saddle. Lower the saddle
if you cannot reach the pedal. The following
sections explain how to adjust the saddle height
on your bike. The seatpost can be fastened using
the saddle clamp bolt

WARNING
Seatpost marking
The seatpost is marked to indicate how far you
may pull it out from the frame. Never pull the
seatpost further out than the marking. This could
cause it to bend or break, and cause you to fall.

Attaching the pedals
1. Screw the right-hand pedal (marked ‘R’) into the right-hand pedal
crank in a clockwise direction.
2. Screw the left-hand pedal (marked ‘L’) anticlockwise into the left-hand
pedal crank.
DANGER
Screw the pedals in straight, otherwise you could damage the thread
on the pedal crank; if this happens when you are cycling, a severe fall
could result.
3. Tighten both pedals towards the front wheel with a torque setting of
35-55 Nm.
