SEAT ADJUSTMENTS
Proper bike setup gives you a more comfortable ride and reduces your risk of injury. To adjust the seat height:
Dismount the bike. Loosen and pull out on the seat height pop-pin to release it from its current preset location,
while holding the seat with one hand. Raise or lower the seat to the desired height, then gently release the
pop-pin. Raise or lower the seat slightly, if necessary, until the pop-pin engages a preset hole.
SEAT HEIGHT
At the proper height, there should be a slight bend in your knee when you’re at
the bottom of a pedal stroke. (Figure 1)
FORE/AFT POSITION
Once the proper height has been achieved, adjust the seat forward or back
so that when the feet are in the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions, the forward
knee is directly over the pedal axle. Recheck the seat height again after making
the fore/aft adjustment, as moving the seat forward and backward can have
the same effect as moving it higher or lower. (Figure 2)
