- For the saddle height is correct, we should place ourselves standing next to the bike and place it just above our iliac crest or what is the same, the hipbone. Similarly, once seated, when the pedal is at its lowest point, the leg should be almost extended, with slightly bent knee and foot pedal comfortably supported.
- The inclination of the seat should be such that it is parallel to the ground, as if the tip is down we premolars while if left up can harm us.
- The handlebar height should be the same as the saddle or slightly higher, it must never be at the height of the chest or shoulders, as can harm us back by adopting an incorrect stance.
- For the handle is placed correctly, ideally it is the tip of the saddle as much as the length of your forearm separately, including fingers, and once sitting on the bike, your elbows should be bent and your shoulders relaxed.
