8. Adjusting and Operating the Bike

WARNING Danger from falls and accidents

If work is not carried out professionally on your bike, this may endanger its safety and result in dan-

gerous situations during riding, as well as falls and accidents.

• You should only carry out the adjustment work described.

• Make these adjustments only if you have the necessary tools and manual skills.

• Under no circumstances should you carry out any other adjustments.

NOTE:

In the following sections the adjustments for the standard equipment of all GHOST bikes are described.

Some sections only apply if your bike has the listed equipment. This can be found in section 4, Design and

Function. If you have any questions, please contact your specialist bicycle dealer. He or she will be pleased

to advise you.

8.1 Adjusting the saddle height

WARNING Danger from falls and accidents

With children, and particularly those who do not yet have a complete command of bike riding, adjust-

ment of the saddle too high can lead to dangerous riding situations, falls, accidents and material

damage.

• Adjust the saddle height such that the child can touch the ground with both feet when sitting on

the saddle.

NOTE:

A description of how to operate the saddle post clamping can be found in sections 8.6.3, Opening and clos-

ing the quick-release axle on the saddle post clamping and 8.6.5, Opening and closing the screw-nut clamp-

ing on saddle posts.

1. Loosen the clamping of the saddle post.

2. Move the saddle with saddle post to the desired position.

3. Clamp the saddle post securely in position.

8.2 Adjusting the spring fork

8.2.1 Forks with air suspension

8.2.1.1 Adjusting the air pressure

NOTE:

Your suspension fork has air suspension. You can adjust the springing behaviour by means of the air pres-

sure. For the adjustment you need a special suspension fork pump. The use of other pumps may damage

your suspension fork.

• You can purchase a suspension fork pump that is suitable for your bike from your bicycle dealer. If you do

not have such a pump, have your suspension adjusted by your specialist dealer.
