Seat and handle bar:
You bicycle is assembled by the dealer and is
in a road-worthy condition. The handle bar and
seat position is adjusted to your height. While
adjusting the seat and handle bar height, pay
attention to the minimum insertion depth marked
on the handle stem shaft and seat support.
Never pull out the handle bar or seat above
the marking! Electrical devices should not be
connected to the mains over long periods
without supervision. Hence, you should pull out
the power plug from the mains socket during
vacations or during long periods of absence.

release.
•
Move the seat support in or out
•

the tips of your toes touch the ground on both
sides.

clamped at least up to the mark. Otherwise
it might break, leading to a fall! Leather
seats can discolour clothes when used
initially under wet conditions. Frequent
re-adjustments of the seat can leave
permanent scratches on the surface of the
seat support due to the mechanical action.
These damages fall under normal wear
and tear, and do not constitute a case of
materials defect liability.
