24 Footrests
Measures need to be taken to ensure
there is sufficient ground clearance under the
footrest. Experience shows that this should not
be less than 4 cm. This must be observed for
the angle adjustment of the footplate and when
setting the lower leg length.
24.1 Angle adjustment of the footplate
The angle of the footplate can be set by
undoing the M6 fastening clamp screws (AF
5 mm) on the bottom side of the footrest
support plate. When the angle adjustment is
completed, tighten the M6 fastening clamp
screws (AF 5 mm) again to maximum 5 Nm.
This tightening torque should not be exceeded
as higher tightening torques can damage the
clamp.

For the longitudinal setting of the footrest
support tubes or adaptation to the lower leg
length, the M6 fixing screws (AF 4 mm) must
be undone on both sides on the outside of the
frame tube. The footrest support tubes are
then pushed along their slots and thus brought
into the correct position. Observe that the
footrest support tubes are both the same
length on both sides after they have been
adjusted.

both sides.

or with a larger lower leg width at the top than
the bottom, due to the resulting tensioning of
the footrest support tubes in the footrest
support plate from the longitudinal setting, it is
necessary to open the M6 fastening clamp
screws (AF 5 mm) again on the footrest
support plate. View the procedure in
chapter 24.1.
