2. Setup of appropriate handlebar height
Each user can set up the appropriate handlebar height based on his or her body height and riding
experience.
Recommendation: The handlebar should be slightly higher than the saddle for new users (Fig. 1) and
flush with or slightly lower than the saddle for experienced users (Fig. 2).
Users subject to lumbar muscle strain and lumbar spondylosis may ride the bike with the consent of
doctors. It is recommended to adjust the handlebar into a higher position.
