Determining the saddle height (part 1):\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou will need:a tape measure, a hardback book and a pencil.\n\n- Stand barefoot with your back against a wall, your heels touching the wall and your feet about 15 to 20 cm apart.\n- Slide a book between your legs, gently moving it up to your perineum to simulate a saddle.\n- Mark the top of the book on the wall.\n\nMeasure the distance between the floor and this mark:this is your inseam length, which is essential for determining the size of your bicycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e1. Determining the saddle height (part 2):\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eStart by adjusting your saddle to the correct height.\nMultiply your inseam (from the floor to the top of your thigh) by 0.883.\n\nExample: 89 cm (inseam length) x 0.883 = 78.6 cm\nThis measurement corresponds to the distance between the bottom bracket axle and the top of the saddle for an optimal position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e2. Adjusting the saddle angle:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eEasily adjust the angle of your saddle using a spirit level.\nPlace it from the centre towards the tip of the saddle.The aim is to achieve a perfectly horizontal position.\nAfter a few rides, adjust it according to how it feels for optimal comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e3. How to measure your sit-bone width\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo measure the width of your sit bones, place two pieces of corrugated cardboard on a stool.Sit on them with your back straight, applying strong pressure for one minute.Stand up and locate the two marks left there.Mark the centre of each mark and measure the distance between these two points.This measurement will help you choose the right saddle width for optimal comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e3. Adjusting the saddle setback:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdjust your saddle position for greater comfort.\nSit on your bike with your back against the wall.\nClip your shoes in and place the crank in a horizontal position.\nThe front of your knee should be aligned with the pedal axle.\nIf not, adjust the saddle:move it slightly forwards or backwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wide cut suited to all types of body shape, the gel padding and cushioning for optimal comfort, make it perfect for your bike rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item large--one-half medium--one-half productFeature productFeature--easy-to-breathe\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid--full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item one-fifth productFeature-icon\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"productFeature-image\" src=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/contents.mediadecathlon.com\/b65338\/pic.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item four-fifths productFeature-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"productFeature-title\"\u003eSitting comfort\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productFeature-description\"\u003eWide seat for better support and gel padding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item large--one-half medium--one-half productFeature productFeature--easy-to-breathe\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"grid--full\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item one-fifth productFeature-icon\"\u003e\u003cimg class=\"productFeature-image\" src=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/contents.mediadecathlon.com\/b65379\/pic.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid__item four-fifths productFeature-content\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 class=\"productFeature-title\"\u003eAnatomic design\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"productFeature-description\"\u003eSoothes the perineum with Gel Flow technology.
