Seatpost

All Liteville frames have an inner seat tube diameter of 34.9 mm.

The 601 frame has a minimum 
seatpost insert length of 
140mm (measured from the 
end of the seat tube). 

The factory black anodised 
frames have a laser etched 
mark on the back of the seat 
tube to indicate this (minimum 
seatpost insert). This mark 
indicates the 140mm insert 
length.

Works Finish frames do not have a laser etching. Nevertheless, you are required to adhere to the before 
mentioned requirements.

What is the minimum length of a seat post adapter shim? 

Here, the above mentioned min. insert requirement of 140mm also applies.
Despite the use of a seatpost shim, you must still adhere to the minimum insert depth of the seatpost in the 
shim!
Tip: if you are unsure, choose the longer seatpost shim and double check for compatibility and good quality 
(such as the Syntace Post Shim Light 31.6 / item no. 113299 and Syntace Post Shim 30.9 / item no. 114203).

Tires 

 

The Liteville 601 frame is compatible with tires up to 2.5”. This refers to tyres with inside diameter of 559mm 
(26”). Take note that upon full compression of the rear shock the tyre is allowed to contact the seat tube as an 
upper limit. Please also check the fork manufacturer’s requirements.
Note: A brushing of the rear wheel on the seat tube upon full compression when riding will, other than produ-
cing a wear mark on the seat tube, not cause any damage. 

Seatpost clamp

We recommend the use of our SuperLock2 seatpost clamp. In case you want to use another seatpost clamp, 
you will need a clamp with a inside diameter of 38.0 mm.
