Today I rode my Mezzo and had a moment to make this adjustment - perfect - no more unwanted movement

Here is my Mezzo D9 today after a short ride to a friend's house to help fix his car. Perfect weather.

The rear carrier with extra rollerblade wheels added on the same axle. Makes it easy to roll along with the saddle raised.


Thanks for the guidance about this adjustment as the users manual didn't make this clear.
