Mounting the saddle & seatpost

As a rule, hand-tightening is sufficient to prevent the seatpost from slipping. Too
much tightening can damage the seatpost, frame and quick release.
If the saddle height is correct and the
saddle is in line with the upper tube
(fig.
1)
, fix the saddle position with the clam-
ping screw.
(fig. 1-3)
The minimum insertion depth is marked on the seatpost. (fig. 4) The seatpost
must meet this minimum insertion depth otherwise the post and frame may be
damaged. A material failure can lead to loss of control, falls and injuries.
