5.3.2
Adjusting the suspension system to body weight
Not included in price
Seat post and forks are components that may be
§
replaced after approval by the vehicle or parts
manufacturer.
Replacing with different sizes and hardnesses
within a product series is permitted for seat
posts.
Steel suspension in suspension forks and seat
posts are designed to bear body weight. If the
body weight is exceeded or not reached, the
suspension system will no longer function as
intended. This has no effect on the fork's or seat
post's approved load capacity but the suspension
system will no longer function perfectly or it won't
work at all.
Adjust all components such as suspension
forks or suspension seat posts with steel
springs to the rider's body weight.
