5. SETUP AND USE
POWER CRUISER DESCENDER
a: 125mm
b: 100mm
a: 90mm
b: 65mm
a: 35mm
b: 35mm
The Command Post IR is available in two
lengths: 125 (a), or 100 (b) millimeters of travel
(measured from the top of the seal head wiper
to the bottom of the saddle head assembly).

The following collars have been tested for use with the Command Post IR,
and are recommended:
» Specialized fixed and Q/R collars
» Salsa Flip-Lock Q/Rs
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Use only hand pressure on the Q/R lever. Use
only enough tension to keep the post from slipping. Over-tightening can lead
to sub-optimal return action.
„
The remote lever is used to activate the Command Post IR:
» The Command Post IR has three different positions: Descender (fully
compressed); Cruiser (center position); and Power (fully extended). See Fig. 1.
» To move the saddle down, press the remote lever, and guide the saddle
down to the next lower position. If the post proves difficult to move,
unweight the saddle slightly while pressing the lever, and then push down
using your weight.
» To move the saddle up, press the remote lever and, while maintaining
contact with the saddle, guide the saddle to the next higher position.
„
Store and transport the seatpost in the Descender position to prevent nicks
and/or scratches to the inner tube, which can lead to air loss.
„ Before performing any service, release the air pressure in the Command
Post IR while in the fully extended (Power) position. Make sure the Command Post IR is in the fully extended position when adding air.
NOTE: The working air pressure range for the Command Post IR is 15 to 25 PSI (1.03 to 1.72 bar). If temperatures are above 50°F (10°C), 20 PSI is enough
pressure to achieve a proper return rate. If the temperature is below 50°F (10°C), pressure can be raised up to 25 PSI. Never exceed 25 PSI (1.72 bar).
MAINTENANCE
Routine maintenance of the Command Post IR is crucial to peak performance. Vigilantly maintain the following service regimen to keep your
Command Post IR in tip-top shape:
„
Before every ride: Gently clean the exposed portion of the inner tube with a rag. Avoid pushing contamination into the seal. Check the inner tube
for scratches, nicks, etc. (Visit an Authorized Specialized Dealer if there is any damage to the inner tube.) Make sure the lever action is smooth and
that the cable is kink-free. Lubricate the inner tube (Fig.3, item G) if the Command Post IR has been idle for several weeks. Inspect the Command
Post IR for any damage that might require warranty service (read the Limited Warranty below). Use it or lose it!
„
Every 3 months: Use a standard shock pump to check and increase/decrease air pressure to between the 15 — 25 PSI (1.03 — 1.72 bar) range,
depending on outside temperature. Lubricate the inner tube and cycle the Command Post IR up and down a few times. Lubricate the actuating
cable at both ends. Adjust the inline adjuster barrel as needed so that there is a small amount of slack in the cable (slightly tap the lever to feel the
slack; there should be a small amount at the top of lever throw). If ridden in muddy/rainy conditions, lubricate the cable and cable housing with a
Teflon-based lubricant (e.g., Tri-Flow®).
„
Every 6 months: Have your local Authorized Specialized Dealer inspect the Command Post IR. This is important: If any issues are discovered, you
are still covered by the Limited Warranty (see below).
„
After 1 year or 150 hours: Have your local Authorized Specialized Dealer service the Command Post IR. If you ride in extreme conditions (dirt,
mud, sand dunes, tundra, Morgan Hill, etc.), you might need to service your Command Post IR sooner. Replace the cable and cable housing, then
check functionality. If the Command Post IR becomes inoperable after a cable/cable housing change, see an Authorized Specialized Dealer.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Issue/Symptom Cause Solution
Action between positions is sticky Grease has migrated from sliding surfaces Apply lubricant to the sliding tube (inner tube) surface and around the seal head then cycle post to re-lube seals
Lack of grease Disassemble, clean, then lube internal parts*
Pressure bleeds through seal over time Increase air pressure to desired setting / Check inner tube for nicks and/or scratches*
Slow return to the Power position Pressure bleeds through seal over time Increase air pressure to desired setting / Check inner tube for nicks and/or scratches*
Grease has migrated from sliding surfaces Lubricate the sliding tube (inner tube)
Post internal parts have been contaminated Disassemble, clean, then lube internal parts*
Pressure is set too low Increase air pressure to workable range
Seat collar too tight Loosen tension until seatpost activates properly but seatpost doesn’t slip inside frame**
Post does not move when lever is activated Cable and housing friction Lubricate or replace cable/cable housing
Plunger is too low Reset plunger height*
Too little cable tension Increase tension by turning the inline barrel adjuster counter-clockwise (see Fig. 14, item A)
Seat collar too tight Loosen tension until seatpost activates properly but seatpost doesn’t slip inside frame**
Post moves without activating lever Cable and housing friction Lubricate or replace the cable/cable housing
Plunger is too high Reset plunger height*
Too much cable tension Reduce tension by turning the inline barrel adjuster clockwise (see Fig. 14, item A)
Slow/No return action 2-3 days after setting air
pressure Air leakage due to main seal damage Replace the seal head assembly*
Inner tube surface has nicks and/or scratches Replace the inner tube assembly*
Grease has migrated from sliding surfaces Lubricate the inner tube
* To preserve your warranty, this service/procedure must be performed by an Authorized Specialized Dealer.
** If the seat collar is torqued to specification and the seatpost slips in the frame, this may be the result of a fit/compatibility issue. Please consult your Authorized Specialized Dealer for
inspection.
