11.2 Setting up the seating position
The seat, handlebars and stem must be adjusted
to your body mass and the desired sitting positon
in order to use your FLYER safely and comfort-
ably.
Only allow FLYER specialists to work on
your handlebars and stem. These are
components which are crucial for your
safety, so incorrect work and tools in this
area of the bicycle could lead to serious
falls.
The seat and stem can be attached with
screw connections or quick releases. Al-
ways secure screw connections with the
correct torque, see “Technical Data”.
Seat height
In order to transfer the pedal force effectively to
the pedals, you must set your seat to the appro-
priate height.
Find the ideal position by sitting on the FLYER
and placing the heel of your foot onto the pedal in
its lowest position.
Now the bottom leg should be stretched. If this
is not the case, dismount, adjust the seat in the
required direction and try again.
Ensure that the quick release fastener is com-
pletely closed after the adjustment process.
There are markings on the seat post
which show how far it can be pulled out
of the frame. Never pull the seat post be-
yond the maximum length marking. Oth-
erwise the seat post may buckle or
break. If you require a longer seat post
to reach the correct sitting position, talk
to your FLYER specialist retailer. Never
ride with a seat post extended further
than the maximum marker as this could
result in serious falls and injury.
