2. Familiarise yourself with your bike
2.1 Adjusting the position
2.1.1 Attaching the pedals
If you ever need to remove your pedals, be aware
that on the inside of your pedal you will fi nd an R
and an L. The R pedal should be fi tted on the right
(the side with the chainring(s)). The L pedal should
be fi tted on the left (the side without a chainring).
Remember when attaching the pedals:
•
To tighten the right pedal, turn clockwise
•
To tighten the left pedal, turn anti-clockwise
2.1.2 Adjusting the saddle
The fi rst thing you can adjust is the height of the
saddle. Your reseller may help you do this. If the
position of the saddle feels uncomfortable, please
do adjust it. An incorrect position can actually
cause medium and long-term injuries.
The height of the saddle can be adjusted by
unscrewing the seat clamp with a 5mm Allen key,
or by opening the quick release lever.
Recommended tightening torque: 7 Nm
N.B., all seat posts have a minimum insertion
level which is indicated on the post ("min" or
"stop"). It is not a good idea to pull the saddle
higher than this limit to guarantee your safety.
Once the height of the seat has been adjusted, you
can change its angle. We recommend starting with
the seat horizontal and adjusting it to suit you.
2.1.3 Adjusting the handlebars
Our bikes have already been adjusted to guarantee
optimum ergonomics.
However, if you need to adjust the cockpit, we
recommend following these steps.
If you would like to adjust the angle of the
handlebars, you need to unscrew the stem and
angle the handlebars until you fi nd the most
comfortable position for you. Then tighten the
stem screws (6/8Nm if the stem has 2 screws,
4/5Nm if it has 4).
