Children's bicycle
Setting the seating position
Figure 8: Setting the height of the saddle:
The saddle can be pulled out after releasing
the saddle clamp with the aid of a 5mm Allen
key. Set the saddle so that at least the toes,
preferably the ball of the foot, reach the ground
in order to ensure balance can be achieved
when at a standstill.
Please observe the following principles:
Minimum height of the saddle as follows:
Z2 / ZL 12: 45 cm
Z6 / ZL 16: 49 cm
Z8 / ZL18: 53 cm
Maximum height of the saddle:
The minimum insertion depth of the saddle
post is 65 mm. There is an appropriate mark
ing on the saddle post (see Figure 8).
Then retighten the saddle clamp (torque
58 Nm).
Setting the height of the handlebar: Adjust the
seating position so that the child is seated up
right and a good overview is ensured. The
handlebar, hand brake lever and bell must be
easy for the child to reach.
The torque for the clamping of the stem in the
fork stem: 15 Nm.
The torque for the clamping of the handlebar in
the stem: 12 Nm.
Setting the chain tension
The chain should have a vertical play of ap
proximately 1.5 cm. The setting of the chain
tension is carried out as follows:
Figure 9: Undo both wheel nuts of the rear
wheel
Figure 10: Adjust the chain tension by sliding
the rear wheel at the dropout. Then tighten the
wheel nuts again (torque 15 Nm)
