Adjust The Saddle Height - Velotric Thunder 1ST Manual

Adjust the Saddle Height

The saddle position can be tested when you sit on the saddle with your heel on the lower pedal.
Before performing the adjustment of the saddle position, a saddle height test is needed.
■ If your leg is straight and your knee is fully
extended, it indicates that the saddle is in
an appropriate position.
■ If your leg is bent at the knee, it indicates
that the saddle should be adjusted up.
■ If you cannot reach the pedal, it indicates
that the saddle should be adjusted down.
To adjust the saddle position, follow the steps below.
1. Loosen the seat post clamp with an M5
Allen key.

2. Slide the seatpost in or out of the seat tube.
To avoid damage to seatpost or ebike
frame, do not position the saddle lower
than the minimum insertion line on the
seatpost.
If you are uncertain/unsure of/in doubt
about the saddle position, seek help from
a qualified mechanic.
3. Tighten the seatpost clamp with an M5
Allen key. Ensure that the clamp is firmly
tightened.
4. If the saddle position needs a bit more adjusting, repeat steps 1 to 3.
WARNING
!
■ With the seatpost fully compressed and the saddle in the rearmost
position, the rear tire may rub the saddle. To avoid this situation, it is
recommended to adjust the saddle up and forward.
■ After any saddle adjustment, be sure that the saddle adjusting
mechanism is properly tightened before riding. A loose seatpost
clamp can cause damage to the seatpost, or can cause loss of control
accidents.
