The saddle should be at a height where the rider's legs can comfortably extend when pressing the pedal without fully straightening.

The handlebars should be at a height and distance where the rider can sit comfortably without bending the back.

The city bicycle is designed for comfortable riding on flat roads, the mountain bicycle for difficult roads, and the road bicycle for speed and long distances.

Weekly basic checks (tires, brakes, chain) and at least once a year professional service are recommended.

Helmet, lights, reflectors, pump, and lock are the most important accessories for safety and convenience.

Wearing a helmet, using lighting, and strictly obeying traffic rules are essential.

The bicycle should be stored in a dry place, with the tires slightly inflated and away from moisture.
