| Adjust the height, angle, and positioning to fit the body of the rider. |
Filling the tires with the right amount of air lowers tire resistance, providing
a more pleasant and comfortable ride.
When tire pressure is too low, resistance increases dramatically, making
it much harder to pedal. Not only does this lower speed, it can even damage
the rims. |
Standard practice is to use three-point positioning to set saddle height,
and then adjust the handlebars so that they are about 10 cm above the saddle's
surface. |
