Seat adjustments

Making sure that your seat is adjusted correctly will not only make riding more comfortable, but more efficient.

Seat height
- The seat should be low enough so that you can just touch the ground with both feet
- At the bottom of your stroke, you leg should be straight, bent slightly, not locked

Rail adjustment
- This is a comfort adjustment, give different positions a try
- The further forward your seat is, the more your front wheel grips the ground

Tilt
- Once again, this is a comfort adjustment, depending on whether you prefer the seat tilted backwards or forwards
- Make sure you adjust the seat so that you are seated comfortably
