Adjust Your Bike Fit
Ensuring that your bike is properly fit to you is an important step in preparing for your first ride. Your Authorized Specialized Retailer will be able to provide a basic fit so that you are able to ride comfortably and efficiently. Specialized also offers Retül Fit, a data-driven bicycle fitting tool designed to improve comfort, prevent injury, and increase performance.
Sizing
| S | M | L | XL | |
| Rider height | 155 - 165 cm 5'1" - 5'4" | 165 - 178 cm 5'4" - 5'8" | 175 - 185 cm 5'7" - 6'1" | 185 - 195 cm 6'1" - 6'4" |
Adjust saddle height
When adjusting the saddle height or installing an aftermarket dropper post, it is important to ensure the insertion depth is within the acceptable range.
| Seat post maximum insertion | Seat post minimum insertion | |
|---|---|---|
| S | 200mm | 80mm |
| M-XL | 260mm |
All models use a 30.9mm seat post and a 34.9mm seat collar. Torque the seat post collar bolt to 6.2 Nm / 55 in-lbf.
Warning: For general instructions regarding the installation of the seat post, refer to the appropriate section in the Owner's Manual. Riding with an improperly tightened seat post can allow the saddle and seat post to slide down, which can damage the frame and cause you to lose control and fall.
Adjust the reach
If your bike is the correct size, you should be able to comfortably reach the handlebars with your elbows slightly bent. Your bike saddle can move back and forth on the rails–start with it centered and fine tune as needed. A professional bike fitter will set this position to line up your knee with the pedal axle. You can also adjust your reach by raising or lowering your handlebar height, and by increasing or decreasing the length of your bike stem.
