• 

The lighting system is intact

•

Seat and handle bar:

You bicycle is assembled by the dealer and is in a 

road-worthy condition . The handle bar and seat posi-

tion is adjusted to your height . While adjusting the 

seat and handle bar height, pay attention to the mini-

mum 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 peri-

ods of absence .

Seat:

The seat can be adjusted in three directions: height, 

inclination and distance from handle bar .

Height:

• 

Loosen the seat clamping bolts or quick release .

• 

Move the seat support in or out

• 

Tighten the clamp after making the adjustment . 

You have adjusted the seat height according to your 

body size, so that, while sitting on the seat, the tips 

of your toes touch the ground on both sides . 

Inclination of the seat and distance from handle bar

• 

Loosen the nut of seat piston or inner hexagon 

bolt (2)

• 

Move seat forward or backward

• 

Incline the seat

• 

Tighten the nut or inner hexagon bolt 

Caution! The seat support must remain 

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.

Handle bar and handle bar stem

replace the handle bar and stem. Invisible micro 

cracks can lead to breakage and therefore,

Loosen the nut or inner hexagon bolt of the ex-

pander bolt (Figure, pos .1)

• 

Loosen the bolt with a gentle hammer blow and 

adjust the correct handle bar height .

•

Caution! Please pay attention to the marking, 

which should under no circumstance project 

out of the control tube. Danger of breaking – 

and therefore, risk of falling! 

Frequent re-adjustments of the seat can leave 

permanent scratches on the surface of the seat 

support due to mechanical action . These damages 

falls under normal wear and tear, and does not con-

stitute a case of materials defect liability .
