9 Saddle
The saddle shape should suit the intended use, as
well as your personal preferences and physical cha-
racteristics.
With the saddle optimally adjusted, you can reach
all the controls on the handlebars in a comfortable
sitting position and support yourself with your feet
on the ground.
9.1 Warnings about saddle adjustment
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
If the minimum insertion depth for the seat post is not
observed, the seat post may slip or break.
f Observe the minimum insertion depth of the seat post.
f Never shorten the seat post yourself.
NOTE
Risk of damage!
Failure to maintain a specified minimum seat post exten-
sion height can damage e-bike components.
f When adjusting the saddle height, make sure that no
cables, Bowden cables etc. running in the seat tube are
damaged/jammed.
9.2 Adjusting the saddle
For an optimum sitting position, you can adjust the
height, tilt and alignment of the saddle.
Minimum insertion depth of the seat post
The seat post of your e-bike has a marking that
shows how far the seat post must be inserted into
the seat tube as a minimum.
With a correctly adjusted saddle height, the mar-
king for the minimum insertion depth of the seat
post must no longer be visible, but must be inside
the seat tube.
Minimum seat post extension height
Depending on the model, you will find an additional
specification for the minimum extension height of
the seat post for your e-bike.
The corresponding value indicates how far the seat
post must protrude upwards from the seat tube.
