The seat sling can be adjusted for tension by using several straps. To
adjust the tension of the seat sling all straps have to be open. By pulling
the straps the tension of the seat sling will be tightened, (Fig. 6.4.1)
NOTE:
If the tension is too high, the cross brace will not be able to slide
into the saddle.
Adjusting the seat height:
Lightweight adapter

• Remove the rubber bungs (3), which are located in the groove on the
rear side of the axle brackets.
• Undo the Allen screws (1) with an Allen key. Position the axle adapter
(2) on the axle bracket (4), at the desired seat height (Fig. 6.4.2).
• For the lowest seat height, the axle adapter should be assembled
upside down.
