Insert the modular padding pieces into the seat to obtain desired lumbar and shoulder support. Set the chair into the racing position for use and return it to the compact, storage position when finished.

Recommendations

For optimal control and comfort, check that the wheel and pedals are tightened securely before use, adjust the pedal plate so your knees have a slight bend when the pedals are depressed, and place the modular pads where they provide firm but comfortable lumbar support. Store the seat in its folded position when not in use to save space.
