Test Ride; Anti-Slip Shim - Ergon CF Allroad Pro Carbon Instructions D'installation Et D'utilisation

Test ride

After you have fitted your CF Allroad Pro Carbon seat post according the
instructions, it is time for a short careful test ride on smooth pavement with little
traffic or other hazards.
Make sure that the seatpost does not slip into the frame. Do not over tighten the
clamp to compensate. Over tightening may lead to the seat tube failing, and
irreparably damage the frame or the seat post.
As a result of tolerances in the frame production process, it may be the case that
your frame seat tube is too large for the seatpost, despite indicating it is a 27.2
mm seat tube. The seatpost will then slip in the frame, even when correctly
tightened. If this is the case please use the included Anti-Slip shim. This
corrosion resistant, 0.25mm thick shim is made of high strength Carbon Fiber
Composite.
For use of / fitting instructions for the Anti-Slip Shim please read the following
pages.

Anti-Slip Shim

Do not use any other seatpost shims other than the one provided with
the post, and only one such shim may be used. Any other type of shim
may cause a failure of the post and an injury.
Make a note of the chosen saddle angle 'a' (details on page 49) and the
seatpost extension 'b' (details on page 51) (Fig. 1). Undo the seat tube clamp
and remove the seatpost from the bike frame (Fig. 2).
