Handlebar Height and Angle

Warning- The handlepost "Minimum Insertion" mark must not be visible above the top of the headset. If the handlepost is extended beyond the
"Minimum Insertion" mark the stem may break or damage the steerer tube, which could cause you to lose control and fall.
Handlebar Position
The position of the handlebar should be set to allow comfortable and easy reach of both gear and brake levers. When riding, your weight should be so
balanced that your hands rest lightly on the handlebars. This prevents strain on your wrists and forearms when pedalling. If you alter the riding position,
remember to tighten all nuts and bolts securely.
