GENERAL INFORMATION
Damage can lead to failure of the component and thus to serious
injury or even death. Externally damaged or defective components
must not be used under any circumstances and must be replaced
immediately. If you are unsure, contact us or your dealer.
WEIGHT LIMIT
The saddles Pure, Grip and Comfort are approved up to a maximum
rider weight of 90 kg.
APPEARANCES
Our components are 100% handmade. Thereby it can come to
different appearances. It makes each component unique and has no
influence on the safety. By direct incidence of light you get a great
view of the individual fibers with partly shimmering shades.
INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION COMPATIBILITY
The functional principle, the clamping forces and the quality of
workmanship, especially the contact surfaces and edges of the seat
post can affect the durability of the saddle or its saddle frame and
possibly cause damage.
Therefore, be sure to note any special requirements in the
instructions for use of the seat post and never mount your Beast
Componnents saddle on unsuitable seat posts, and only on seat
posts that meet the criteria below:
•
The saddle struts have a high oval diameter of 7 mm x 9 mm.
Only use seat posts that are designed for high-oval struts with
this diameter, so that the saddle struts fit into the clamping
device without play.
•
The length of the upper clamping surface must be at least
32 mm.
•
If the lower clamping surface is divided, then the minimum
length of each individual clamping surface must be at least
7 mm.
•
Clamping of the saddle frame with non opposite clamping jaws
or clamping surfaces is to be avoided in all cases. Otherwise,
the saddle frame is subjected to a bending stress that can
lead to premature failure or sudden breakage during use and
thus to an accident.
•
Considering that the saddle has a very flexible seat shell, there
should be a gap of at least 10 mm between it and the saddle
head of the seat post.
•
Assembly of the saddle using a so-called saddle block should
be avoided. The clamping surfaces are usually unfavourably
short and small, so that reliable clamping of the saddle without
damaging the saddle frame cannot be guaranteed.
INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE SADDLE
•
First install the saddle in the center of the clamping area and
observe the maximum tightening torque of 5Nm.
•
You should also observe the specifications and the maximum
tightening torque of the manufacturer of the seatpost.
•
The saddle must only be clamped in the straight area of the
struts
.
•
Vary the setting according to your needs, starting from the
center position and moving forward and backward within the
adjustment range.
The setting of the optimum saddle position can be very different
for each individual. It may require some time and repeated testing.
Information on the correct adjustment of the saddle can be found
in a variety of literature and guidebooks on the subject of bicycle
ergonomics. If you do not feel confident in mounting the saddle,
please contact your specialist dealer, referring to this instruction
manual.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Always inspect your Beast Components product for integrity before
riding. Damage can lead to component failure, resulting in serious
injury or even death. Defective components should not be driven
on under any circumstances and should be replaced immediately. If
you are unsure, contact us or a specialist dealer.
The following issues should always be considered:
•
Carefully check the surface of the saddle and the seat stays for
possible damage regularly, at least twice a year, after 2000 km
at the latest and especially after crashes or other situations
that exert unusually high force.
•
Clean the saddle regularly with water and a soft cloth. If the
saddle is very dirty, you can also use a commercially available
washing-up liquid or detergent and warm water.
Proper maintenance and care ensure a long service life and reliable
function.
DISPOSAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
The statutory regulations shall apply. Whenever possible, avoid
creating waste.
Waste, especially carbon, lubricants, cleaners and any other fluids
must be disposed in an environmentally compatible manner.
