Be sure not to pull out the seat post too far – the mark on the seat post

(max., min., stop or the like) should always remain within the seat tube 

– and to grease the surface of an aluminium or titanium seat post that is

inserted into a seat tube made of aluminium, titanium or steel. Do not grease

carbon seat posts and/or carbon seat tubes in the clamping area! Use spe-

cial XLC assembly paste instead .

Do not use brute force, if the seat post does not move easily

inside the seat tube or if it cannot be tightened sufficiently, ask

your bicycle dealer for advice!

The minimum insertion depths marked on seat post and frame

may differ. Be sure to insert the seat post to the deepest inser-

tion depth.

Align the saddle with the frame by using the saddle nose and the bottom

bracket or top tube as a reference point.

Clamp the seat post tight again by closing the quick-release , as de-

scribed in chapter  or by

turning the seat post binder bolts clockwise in half turns. You should not

need much strength in your hands to clamp the seat post sufficiently tight.

Otherwise the seat post does not match the frame.

Verify in between that the seat clamp is sufficiently tight by taking hold of the

saddle at both ends and then trying to rotate the seat post inside the seat

tube . If it does rotate, gently retighten the clamping bolt by half a turn

and do the check again.

Never apply grease or oil into a seat tube of a frame made of

carbon, unless an aluminium sleeve is inside the frame. If you

mount a carbon seat post, do not put any grease on it, even if

the frame is made of metal. Once greased, carbon parts may

never again ensure reliable clamping.

Tighten carefully by approaching the prescribed maximum

torque in small steps (0.5 Nm increments) whilst constantly

checking the proper fit of the component. Never exceed the

maximum tightening torque indicated by the manufacturer!

Do not overtighten the binder bolt of the seat post clamp. Oth-

erwise the seat post or the frame can be damaged. Risk of an

accident!

Does the leg stretch test now produce the right result? Check by moving

your foot and pedal to the lowest point. When the ball of your foot is exactly

above the pedal centre in the ideal pedalling position, your knee should be

slightly bent. If it is, you have adjusted the saddle height correctly. Check

whether you can touch the ground safely while sitting on the saddle by

stretching your feet to the floor. If you cannot, you should lower the saddle

a little, at least to begin with.

Never ride your bicycle with the seat post drawn out beyond

the limit, maximum, or stop mark! The seat post might break or

cause severe damage to the frame. If your bicycle has a long

seat tube continuing beyond the top tube, the seat post should

at least reach below the level of the top tube and the tip of the

rear stays!

If sitting on the saddle causes you trouble, e.g. because it

numbs your crotch, this may be due to the saddle. Your bicycle

dealer has a very wide range of saddles available and can offer

advice on position .

With full-suspension mountain bikes the seat post should not

project from the seat tube at lowest saddle height, as other-

wise the rear shock arm may collide with the seat post during

compression.

Integrated seat posts have to be shortened to adjust them to the individual

needs of the cyclist. The seat post clamping itself provides only limited verti-

cal adjustment.

Shortening the seat post is a very delicate job, best left to your

bicycle dealer! An improperly shortened seat post may result in

damage to the seat post! Risk of an accident!

In case you nevertheless want to shorten the integrated seat post by your-

self, you need special tools!

Determine the desired saddle height . Keep in mind that another saddle

or pedal model may have a significant influence on the length of the seat

tube!

Please note that shortening the seat post is an irreversible ad-

justment. Therefore, ask your bicycle dealer to do this job.

Use a marker pen to indicate the length you want to shorten. Slide an ap-

propriate saw capture on the seat tube until the line of the marker is visible

in the saw capture slot.

Use a saw with a metal cut saw blade. To avoid any damage to

the carbon tube, be sure to use a 24 teeth per inch saw blade.

Saw the tube, remove the saw capture and deburr the cutting edges with

sandpaper.

Mount the saddle clamp and slide it as deep as possible . Finish by fixing

the saddle with a torque wrench according to the indications on the compo-

nent and/or in the enclosed manual. The usage of XLC-mounting paste 

will help you to avoid overtightening.
