    Theres two settings one is
    Theres two settings one is for learning,your feet can touch the ground though you will be too low to peddle at your best.You see children in that position all the time.Then setting two is set to peddle at your best and stop for nothing.Thats just the way it is.Seeing that you need to peddle 99.9% position two works for me thats for sure. 😀
