Tuesday, September 23, 2025 - Adjusting the seat

The seat feels like it's not level.
The front is pointing down, which results in gradually sliding forward while riding.
Used a precise (Starrett) level to check.
The seat is pointing down.
The bubble is all the way to the right of the window.
Used some paper to shim the front up till the level is at a balance.
Note the gap at the front of the level.

After adjusting the seat angle to be level.
