Adjustment of seat height
For riding Mando Footloose, it is important to place the seat properly and
adjust the height. When adjusting the seat, adjust (1) the height first and then
(2) the front and back part of the seat.
1. Adjusting the seat up and down
How to check the seat height
1) Sit on the seat.
2) Put one heel on the pedal.
3) Adjust the seat height so that your heel is parallel to the axis of pedal and
you can almost straighten your leg (However, it is not recommended to
straighten your leg completely).
4) Get into and off from the seat when the product is standing.
Enquire at the store to learn how to adjust the optimum seat height. If you
would like to adjust the seat height by yourself, you have to ensure the following.
5) Ensure that the seatpost clamp is tightened properly.
6) Ensure that the seat post is not above the ‘minimum insertion’ line.
7) Ensure that the seat is not twisted to one side.
8) Ensure that the seat is properly clamped to the seatpost.
2. Adjusting the seat forward and backward
As the seat is adjustable in forward and backward directions, it enables an
optimal seat position.
For proper operation and better charging efficiency when pedaling with
Mando Footloose, it is recommended to set the pedal position so it can rotate
continuously. Adjust the seat forward and backward by aligning the imaginary
line vertically drawn from knee cap with the axis of pedal. Within this range,
find the most comfortable position.
3. Adjusting the seat angle
Most riders prefer the seat parallel to the ground. However, some prefer to
raise or lower the front part of the seat. If you have pain while sitting on the
seat, lowering the front part of the seat may help reduce it (however, the
center of gravity may move to the front).
The seat fastening clamp of Mando Footloose is in the form of 2 bolts; 1
at the front and 1 at the back. Adjust the seat to ensure that the seat lies
horizontally or at a preferred angle by screwing the front and back bolts in
turns. A little difference gives a large effect on the performance and comfort of
Mando Footloose.
Although the seat height has been properly adjusted, you may feel uncomfortable while riding if the slope and front/back position of the seat are not
balanced. Also, the seat provided with the product may not fit to your body. In
this case, it is encouraged to ask assistance of a specialist at the store.

seatpost. Due to this damage, you may
lose control and fall off the bike.

cause prostate pain/numbness, knee
pain, etc) Should you feel uncomfortable
or have pain, stop riding and visit the
store for specialist assistance.
Tighten clamp bolts properly. Loosely
screwed bolts may cause wobbling and
fatigue during a ride, or may cause you to
fall off from the bike.
