Suspensions on SCOTT
Mountain Bikes
OWNER MANUAL
2-3
Comfortable riding not only depends on the position of
the saddle, but also on its height. You can accurately
adjust the height of the saddle to the length of your legs
when you proceed as follows:
1. Straddle the saddle. Place the ball of your foot on
the pedal nearest to the ground. Make sure the
cranks are vertical.
2. If the heel of your foot points down about 30
degrees, the height of the saddle is correct.
Caution!
Make sure that the limit mark on your seat post is insi-
de the seat tube. If it is not possible to reach the correct
seat height, you have to choose a size above.
If you need to change the inclination of the saddle or the
horizontal position, please make sure not to exceed the
max. tightening torque.
Screws with M5 should be tightened with 6 Nm, M8
with 20 Nm.
Please make sure the saddle is connected perfect with
the seat post before every ride.
If you have chosen a SCOTT bike equipped with a
suspension fork, please refer to the enclosed
instructions of the manufacturer.
For the adjustment of the rear suspension on a fully
suspension bike, please refer to the instructions of
the manufacturer of the suspension elements, and
to the SCOTT instructions for full suspension bikes.
Both booklets are enclosed with the bike.
Only a well adjusted suspension brings security,
comfort and fun.
