ADJUSTING THE SCOTT TOY BICYCLE TO YOUR CHILD

After any adjustment/assembly work, be sure to make a short functional check

as described in the chapter “Tests before every ride” and let your child do a

test ride in an area free of traffic. This helps you to check all points once again

without running any risk.

If you are not sure, we recommend that you only check the seating position. Tell

your SCOTT dealer what your child wants to change. They will see to the wishes

of your child the next time you leave the bicycle at the workshop, e.g. for the

first inspection.

DANGER!

All tasks described in the following require the know-how of a mechanic

and appropriate tools. Make it a rule to tighten the bolted connections

always with greatest attention. Increase the torque values bit by bit and check

the fit of the component in between. Use a torque wrench (a) and never exceed

the maximum torque values! You will find the prescribed values in the chapter

“Recommended torque settings for your SCOTT toy bicycle”, directly on the

components and/or in the manuals of the component manufacturers.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE SEATING POSITION

Adjusting the SCOTT toy bicycle to the bodily proportions of a child is even

more important than in the case of an adult. When determining the saddle

height you should find a compromise that allows your child to reach the ground

with both feet when sitting in the saddle while at the same time giving them

enough space for pedalling (b).

Adjustment of the saddle to the correct height

The correct saddle height is achieved when the leg of your child is fully

stretched and positioned with his/her heel on the pedal in its lowest position. In

a cross-check the knee should be slightly bent, when the ball of your child’s foot

is positioned above the middle of the pedal (c).

Make sure that the pelvis of your child remains horizontal during the check. Fin-

ish by checking that your child still reaches the ground. If he/she does not, lower

the saddle a little.

To adjust the saddle height you have to loosen the binder bolt of the seat post

(d). Loosen the binder bolt by using the suitable tool and turn it anticlockwise

by two to three turns.

The loosened seat post can now be adjusted in height.

Be sure not to pull out the seat post too far. The mark on the seat post (end,

min, max, stop, limit etc.) should always remain within the seat tube (e).

Make sure that the part of the seat post inside the seat tube is always well

greased. If the seat post does not move easily inside the seat tube or if it cannot

be tightened sufficiently, ask your SCOTT dealer for advice! Do not use brute

force!

Align the saddle with the frame by using the saddle nose and the bottom brack-

et or top tube as a reference point.

Retighten the seat post. Tighten the seat post binder bolt in half turns clockwise

(f). You should not need much strength in your hands to clamp the seat post

sufficiently tight. Otherwise the seat post does not match the frame.

Verify in between that the seat post is sufficiently tight by taking hold of the

saddle at both ends and then trying to rotate the seat post inside the seat tube.

If it does rotate, gently retighten the clamping bolt by half a turn and do the

check again.

Due to their restricted field of view, children should sit as upright as possible.

If the distance between the handlebars and the saddle is too big, your child is

less relaxed than he/she could be. Therefore, there are some models where the

saddle can be adjusted.
