The Riding Position
When in the riding position, the steering extender is
inserted to the correct depth in the base, the safety pin is
fully inserted into the selected hole and the quick release
lever is firmly closed. The correct depth is reached when
the handlebar height is the most comfortable for the rider
when riding and the "MAX EXTENSION" line is not visible
above the base. This height is usually set so that the rider
stands tall when riding with little to no weight on his/her
hands or wrists.
To place the non-folding steering column into the riding
position, follow these steps:
1.
Place the bike on the kickstand.
2. Open the steering extender quick release.
3. Line up the safety groove on the side of the steering
extender with the notch in the base and ensure that the
control cables are in front of the steering column and
not twisted around the steering extender.
4. Insert the steering extender into the base until it gently
seats against the safety index pin.
5. Pull out the safety index pin with one hand and hold
it while further inserting the steering extender into
the base under until the desired handlebar height is
reached. Ensure that the "MAX EXTENSION" line on the
steering extender is not visible above the base.
WARNING! ENSURE THAT THE "MAX EXTENSION" LINE
ON THE STEERING EXTENDER IS BELOW THE TOP OF THE
BASE! Riding while the "MAX EXTENSION" line is above the
base could result in the steering extender breaking during
operation or being pulled out of the base, causing a fall.
Never use an ElliptiGO product with the "MAX EXTENSION"
line visible above the base.
