3.3.1 Screw supports: Shifting and tilting the saddle
*
1. Loosen the clamping screw by turning it
anticlockwise. Turn the screw completely
two to three times at most or the whole
mechanism could fall apart.
2. Move the saddle backwards or forwards as
required.
3. Tilt the bicycle saddle to the desired angle.
4. Tighten the clamping screw by turning it clockwise with a torque
wrench.
5. Ensure that the newly-tightened saddle does not tip; test it by pressing
down on the front and back alternately.
For 1. Loosen the clamping screw

Shifting and tilting the saddle
DANGER
Never clamp the saddle in the curve of the saddle rail; always do it in
the straight section. Only shift the saddle within the straight section
(fig. 1). Saddles that stay clamped outside this area can fail (fig. 2).

Use a torque wrench to tighten the clamping screws. Observe the
specified torque setting. If no value is shown on the component, use
the torque settings from the following table:
Thread
Tightening torque [Nm]
M5 / M6 / M7 / M8
M5: 5 / M6: 10 /M7: 14 / M8: 22
Failure to comply can result in screws/bolts becoming loose, tearing
away or fracturing. If that happens while you are riding the bike,
components may come off and you could have a severe crash. If
screws are overtightened, components can also be damaged.
