We've designed our Vario EVO 1 footrest system with special consideration for all those who find the knee angle of the original GS too tight and uncomfortable over time. With the sophisticated Vario system, the footrests can be completely individually adjusted vertically and horizontally and lowered by 23-50 mm regardless of the adapter selected. This leads to a relaxed and comfortable knee angle.
It should also be considered that contact with the brake pedal is always intuitive. The brake pedal and its spatial alignment to the footrest simply has to line up. So we definitely recommend our matching foot brake lever lowering kit for anyone using the variable system to lower the footrests in order to enlarge the knee angle. This is because lowering the footrest means the brake pedal is inevitably too high. Our foot brake lever lowing kit takes care of the necessary adjustment by lowering the foot brake lever too. To do this we use a stainless steel adapter that drops the foot pedal stop by approx. 12 mm. This restores the balance in the ergonomics between the foot rest and the brake lever. And this tiny measure increases passive safety.
