Saddle Height; Chain Tension - Scott 2013 Owner's Manual

saddle height

Comfortable riding not only depends on the position of the saddle, but also on its
height. You can accurately adjust the height of the saddle to the length of your legs
when you proceed as follows:
1. Straddle the saddle. Place the ball of your foot on the pedal nearest to the ground.
Make sure the cranks are vertical.
2. If the heel of your foot points down about 30 degrees, the height of the saddle
is correct.
Caution!
Make sure that the limit mark on your seat post is inside the seat tube. If it is not
possible to reach the correct seat height, you have to choose a size above.
Make sure that this mark is inserted into the frame. If you need to change the
inclination of the saddle or the horizontal position, please make sure not to exceed the
max. tightening torque.
Screws with M5 should be tightened with 6 Nm, M8 with 20 Nm.
Please make sure the saddle is connected perfect with the seat post before every ride.
Please note that Scott is not responsible for damages caused by neglecting the
tightening torques on the seat clamp fixing screws.
