INSTRUCTION  MANUAL  

SEATPOST STRAIGHT & OFFSET

• 

Under no circumstances you should use any force during 
assembly if the seatpost can only be pushed into the seat tube 
with great difficulty.

• 

The usage of the supplied assembly paste reduces the 
necessary torque.

• 

The bolts on the seatpost clamp may only be mounted with 
grease-free bolts. The maximum tightening torque of 5 Nm 
must not be exceeded.

• 

Abrasions of the carbon surface during assembly are 
completely normal. 

MOUNTING OF THE SADDLE

• 

Attach the cross bolt. When doing so, the side with the 
increment must face the rear and the smaller countersinks 
must face upwards, as shown in the figure below.

• 

Then place the lower clamping shell on the seatpost that the 
relief heightening faces forward. An arrow (representing the 
riding direction) is printed in the lower clamping shell and will 
help you with the correct adjustment.

• 

The upper clamping shell is mounted in the riding direction 
with the slightly higher side facing forwards according to the 
illustration below. An arrow (representing the riding direction) 
is printed in the lower clamping shell and will help you with the 
correct adjustment.

• 

Afterwards, the longer screw (50mm) must be inserted at the 
rear and the shorter screw (45mm) at the front. 

• 

Now place the saddle with its rails into the saddle support 
grooves.

• 

Set the desired saddle tilt by tightening the two screws 
alternately. Never exceed the maximum permissible torque of 
5 Nm.

• 

Make sure that the clamping shells are aligned centrally in the 
riding direction.

• 

The saddle rail may only be clamped in the intended clamping 
area.

• 

If necessary, retighten the clamping screws to the maximum 
specified torques after 1-2 hours of riding.

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:

• 

Regularly check the tight fit of all parts

• 

When frequently adjusting the height of your seatpost in muddy 
or dusty conditions, material wear actually takes place on the 
surface of both the seat tube and seatpost. To keep this wear 
to a minimum, we recommended removing the seatpost from 
the frame after every ride in wet/muddy conditions and then to 
clean it. The inside of the seat tube should also be cleaned with 
a rag. Check the inside of your seatpost regularly for moisture 
and remove if found.

• 

Check the inside of your seatpost regularly for moisture and 
remove if found.

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.
