Safety instructions
Usage as intended
The Eightpins variable seatpost is designed for bicycle frames featuring a Postpin interface. The range of application includes touring bikes, trekking
bikes and mountain bikes. Bicycle frames that do not have this feature should not be modifi ed. The Eightpins variable seatpost must only be assem-
bled and combined with the original Eightpins remote lever. Different leverage ratios can cause irreparable damages.
Assembly and service
The assembly and the service of the Eightpins variable seatpost requires a special understanding of technical matters. Do not overestimate your
own skills but refer to a professional bicycle shop or to an authorized Eightpins service partner at all times. This is the only way a correct service can
be guaranteed.
Modifi cations
The Eightpins variable seatpost is not to be altered in any way. Do not dismount it, sand it down or paint it. Always use a torque wrench where
necessary. Read the manual carefully and follow it step-by-step.
Attention: A seatpost that has not been mounted correctly does not work correctly.This may lead to
crashes and injuries. Besides, the frame can be damaged.
Before the assembly
The post-pin mounting interface in the frame contains an adjustment screw on the right side of the frame for vertical alignment of the seatpost.
This screw is already set at the factory and glued with a detachable screw glue.
If the adjusting screw is not included in the frame or adjusted correctly, contact the frame supplier.
