HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT TO ENSURE CORRECT BIOMECHANICAL POSITIONING
Proper seat positioning minimizes unecessary leg muscle fatigue. To determine whether or not the seat requires adjust-
ment, sit on it and place the balls of the feet on the pedals. The knee should bend slightly when the pedal is at the furthest
point in its rotation, relative to the body. The user should be able to pedal without locking the knees or shifting in the seat.
Adjusting the seat: Lift the spring-loaded adjusting handle located on the right side of the seat. Slide the seat forward
or backward as necessary to the proper position and release the pin to complete engagement. Gently rock the seat for-
ward and backward to ensure that it is locked into place. Check the seat distance again and readjust it if necessary.
NOTE: If the seat carriage rocks excessively, use a wrench to loosen the jam nut (A) on either side of the seat carriage.
With another wrench, tighten the adjustment roller on the inside of the carriage until it is snug, but do not over-tighten it.
Then, while holding the roller in place, tighten the lock nut. Repeat the procedure for the other side of the seat carriage.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the seat while pedaling the bike. Doing so, or failing to insert the seat pin
completely may result in an uncomfortable workout or cause injury.
