13 HOW THE SEAT AND SEAT POST FUNCTION
Loosen the nut (or nuts) on the seat
clamp.
Put the tapered end of the seat post up into
the seat clamp until it is at the top of the
clamp.
Partially tighten the nut (or nuts) on the seat
clamp until the seat is snug, but can still be
turned.
Adjust the seat to the proper riding position,
then securely tighten the bolts on the seat
post clamp.
Insert the seatpost into the seam mast.
Make sure that the “minimum insertion mark”
is not visible.
Tighten the binder bolt until you can not twist
the seat from side to side.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD
THE SEAT POST PROJECT FROM THE FRAME
BEYOND ITS “MINIMUM INSERTION”
OR “MAXIMUM EXTENSION”
MARK. SEE DIAGRAM BELOW.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY INSTALL AND
ADJUST A SEATPOST WITH A QUICK
RELEASE DEVICE COULD ALLOW
THE SADDLE SEATPOST TO LOOSEN
WHILE RIDING AND LEAD TO SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY.
IF THERE IS NO “LIP” ON THE TOP OF THE SEAT POST, MAKE SURE THAT THE SEAT POST IS
ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE CLAMP BUT DOESN’T HIT THE UNDERSIDE OF THE SEAT.
IF IT DOES HIT, RAISE THE SEAT UP UNTIL CLEARANCE EXISTS.
IF YOUR SEAT POST PROJECTS FROM
THE FRAME BEYOND THE “MINIMUM
INSERTION” OR “MAXIMUM EXTENSION”
MARK THE SEAT TUBE MAY BREAK,
WHICH COULD CAUSE YOU TO LOSE
CONTROL AND FALL. FAILURE TO
PROPERLY ADJUST SEATPOST HEIGHT
WILL VOID THIS WARRANTY.
