Too Short

This might need to go into a different forum category, but I'll try this first. Does anyone else have trouble reaching the pedals? If so, besides a pillow behind my back, what can I do? I have some stack heel shoes left over from my days in the 70's, but I don't know if that would be safe. . .v v

Do you have the seat adjuster? If not you could install one and slide it way up. Additionally you could look at shifting the pedals toward you, on the good after market pedals they do have adjustment plates.

Hey, Bert! Thanks for the suggestions. I had FiberSteel (Russ) put the seat extender on prior to shipping. I will have to try the pedal extenders. I'll see if CBM can send some. Thanks again. v v

I'm to short also...I'm ordering a seat adjuster from FiberSteel.

Move the seat up by installing the extender. Vicki, can the extender be moved (mounted) more forward in your case?

For us kit builders, we put the seat where it fit us and thre is lots of forward room to move to.

I am not sure if this addresses your real issue, but if you have trouble engaging the cluutch this could be due to cable stretch and hte cable system. I changed mine to hydraulic systema nd now I don't have a problem. I can adjust the pedal to engage the clutch with a short throw and not have to put hte pedal to the bulkhead.

Just a thought.

Thanks to all who responded. Yes, I had FiberSteel Russ install the seat extender during construction. I'm just exceedingly short. I'm having pedal extenders sent (courtest of Greg at Beck of course). The clutch cable suggestion seems to be my only other option. I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. Thanks again. v v
