Seat Post
Installation & Adjustment
Before installing:
•
Use a clean shop towel to wipe out any
residual carbon gel paste from the inside the
seat tube.
•
Apply fresh carbon friction gel to the seat
post and place a little bit inside the seat tube.
•
Make sure the seal is in good condition and in
place on the seat post.
To adjust:
1. Insert the prepared seat post into the frame.
Maintain the specified minimum insert.
2. Set the saddle height.
3. Insert 4 mm hex through the underside seat
tube opening as shown.
4. Tighten the binder screw to the specified
torque.
5. Slide the seal against the frame.
5. If saddle angle adjustment is required, loosen
the saddle clamp bolts, adjust the saddle, and
tighten to the specified torque.
NOTICE
•
Do not use any spray cleaners or solvents
to clean. Use only a clen dry shop towel.
•
Do not exceed the specified torque. If
you over-tighten the binder bolt, you will
damage the binder, seat post or the frame.
Maintenance
Periodically, remove the seat post and the clamp
assembly to clean, inspect for damage and renew
the application of grease and carbon gel.
See also, “Seat Binder Inspection.”
Minimum Insert
The minimum insert depth the seat post must be
inserted into the frame is 65mm.
Maximum Insert
The total length of seat post that may be inserted
will vary with the frame size and should be checked
in each frame.
To check, carefully slide a seat post into the frame
until it stops; then lift it up 5mm.
NOTICE
A seat post should not be bottomed out inside
the frame at any time. Have your Cannondale
Dealer size the seat post appropriately.
THE SEAT POST MUST ONLY BE CUT BY A
PROFESSIONAL BIKE MECHANIC. Incorrectly
cutting the seat post can result in damage
leading to an accident.

posts, see also “Care and Maintenance of Carbon
Fiber Seat Posts” in your Cannondale Bicycle
