SMP > Fitting Instructions
For further information refer to: www.sellesmp.com An SMP saddle is designed to divide the body weight between the glutei and the lower part of the pelvis. The balance of the weight and the comfort depend on how the ischial tuberosities rest on the saddle while pedalling. The position is connected to various factors:
These parameters are adjusted by the cyclist according to his/her personal characteristics; to get more from your SMP4BIKE, it is vital that the following procedure is followed: Stage 1- Preliminary positioning 1. Fix the saddle so that the central position of the clamp matches number 4 on the scale printed on the saddle frame. 2. With the help of a spirit level, adjust the tilt, using the clamp, so that the saddle is horizontal (see fig. 1 and fig. 2) Stage 2 – Fine adjustment Once the saddle has been positioned as per the above instructions, carry out the classical fine adjustment with an Allen wrench on the clamp according to how you “feel” the saddle, finding the perfect balance and the right ‘tuning’ between the saddle and the ischial tuberosities. The saddle nose can be gradually lowered by even 10 - 15 – 20 mm, and the distance between the saddle tip and the handlebar can be reduced by even 5 – 10 – 15 mm. |
