Add your crank length (say 7cm) to this (7cm). Add cm for knee clearance (80cm)Now adjust the boom clamp [] to make distance A = 80cm. Now adjust leg distance using the Slider clamp []. See A Any further and adjustments at the slider clamp [] will adjust leg length but won t affect the front derailleur adjustment. Gear Housing Loop Cable to shifter Rider adjustment For adjustment to the individual for arm reach and leg reach, the following are loosened and tightened as required: Cable to deraileur Ring Clamps Front wheel skewer Slider Clamp Boom Clamp Then retighten. Note: Chainstay must be straight after adjustment. Important! Standard component assembly Adjust to the rider before running the cables. Important!
