Got mine adjusted so I can have fully straightened legs just short of bottoming out. Bottoming out can't be good for a plastic kayak, and sure as hell can't be stealthy with all that banging.

Not sure if that’s a design flaw in this specific year model, or maybe I was just kicking too hard at the end of the full range of motion, but I switched back to a pedal setting slightly longer, and just hold back from Fully straightening my legs. Curious if anybody else has had a similar experience.
:confused:.
