6.4.4.10 Adjusting the saddle tilt
The saddle tilt must be adjusted to the seat height,
the saddle and handlebar position, and the saddle
shape to ensure an optimum fit. The seating
position can be optimised in this way if needed.
The saddle prevents pedelec riders from slipping
backwards or forwards when placed in a
horizontal position. This prevents seat problems.
In any other position, the tip of the saddle may
press uncomfortably into the crotch area. It is also
recommended that the centre of the saddle is
exactly straight. This ensures that the rider is
seated with their sit bones on the wide rear part of
the saddle.
1 Adjust the saddle tilt to horizontal.
2 Position saddle middle so that it is completely
straight.

Pedelec riders sit comfortably on the saddle
and do not slip backwards or forwards.
3 Pedelec riders tend to slip forwards on the
narrow part of the saddle, adjust the saddle
again to position (see Section 6.4.4.9) or tilt the
saddle very slightly backwards.
6.4.4.11 Checking the saddle
Check the saddle after adjustment (see
Section 7.5.8).
