3.3 MANUALLY EXTENDING THE SEAT POST
The seat post is delivered in compressed condition. Before fitting, the seat post must be extended
manually.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to the seat post moving out abruptly!
After manually actuating the quickconnector, the upper
part of the seat post moves out abruptly.
• Keep parts of the body, and your head, clear of the
seat post stroke area!
1. Hold the seat post with one hand on the seat tube (as
shown), and pull the quickconnector down with your
other hand.
→ The locking system is unlocked and the seat post
moves out.
3.4 FITTING THE SEAT POST
1. Clean and degrease the seat post and the seat tube of the bike frame.
2. Lightly grease the seat tube for a seat post made of aluminum. Apply carbon assembly paste onto
the seat tube of a seat post made of carbon.
3. Insert the seat post into the bike frame.
→ The seat post must be inserted at
least 90 mm into the bike frame and
up to the "MIN. INSERTION" mark.
→ The seat post may be inserted by
a maximum of 190 mm into the
bike frame and up to the "MAX.
INSERTION" mark.
→ The seat post must be aligned so
that the "FRONT" mark on the
saddle clamp points in the direction
of travel.
4. Tighten the seat post clamp.
→ A screw-type seat post clamp may
be tightened with a maximum of
5 Nm tightening torque.
→ A seat post clamp with a quick
