Seat Angle

Post by libertynh »

Just bought 01. Was a little tall for my 31 inseam. Found seat was on highest position. Found Allen in tool set before I found the one under the seat and moved the mount to the lowest block. Went for a ride. Glad I wasn't planning on more kids due to the crushing effect. After trying every combination eventually took a chance and cut 3/8 inch out of the rear blocks and stacked washers under the front bracket until there was just enough thread left to be secure. Also put some foam under the rear blocks so the pins would drop into the slots. Seat angle looked pretty close to wife's R1200C. went out for a ride and all is good now. Slight pressure points on inside of thigh. Hoping a sheepskin pad will cure that.
