E.STANDARD & LOW FRONT SEAT HEIGHTS

Note: Adjust seat height for body and mechanical efficiency. Be aware that a change in seat height may require a change in the size of the front caster stems or forks.

1. If you raise the seat too high, you may “out-adjust” the caster forks. If this occurs, the seat will tilt toward the front and may cause the rider to fall.

2.To avoid this, you will need to use a longer caster fork or fork stem.
