First, loosen the two horizontally positioned Allen
bolts of the saddle slide clamp by two to three
turns. If necessary, hold the bolts in place on the
other side with another Allen key.
Make sure the saddle rails are positioned in such
a way that the clamp of the seat post is within
the prescribed range. If there is no marking on the
saddle rails, the clamping must be done on the
straight section and on no account in the front or
rear bend. Risk of breakage!
If the range is insucient, you can further loosen
the two almost vertical bolts. Shi the saddle rails
in the saddle clamping device.
If the saddle slide cannot yet be shied, also loos‑
en the two nearly vertical bolts a little without
shiing the saddle in the saddle clamping device.
Now you can move the saddle together with the
saddle slide horizontally on the seat post and ad‑
just the tilt to your needs.
ADJUSTING TO THE RIDER FORE-TO-AFT POSITION AND SADDLE FORE-TO-AFT POSITION AND SADDLE ADJUSTING TO THE RIDER
Re‑assemble the saddle, saddle clamping device
and saddle slide in the new positions. When
mounting the Allen bolts pay attention to the or‑
der of nuts, spacers and bolts and tighten them
only to the point where the saddle clamping de‑
vice can still be moved.
If the adjustment range is still not sucient, ful‑
ly unscrew the two horizontally positioned Allen
bolts. Remove the saddle slide from the seat post,
turn it round by 180° and reposition it.
Subsequently, you must also turn the saddle.
Now bring the saddle to the desired tilt. Tighten
the lower, i.e. horizontally positioned, Allen bolts
evenly so the saddle remains at the desired an‑
gle. Use a torque wrench. If the clamping of your
seat post is not tight with a torque value of 8Nm,
tighten it further in small steps (0.5Nm incre‑
ments) up to a maximum torque value of 10Nm.
Do not exceed the maximum torque value!
As a further option, the saddle clamping bolts can
optionally be tightened in the front (1) or the rear
(2) threaded holes at the saddle clamping device.
When xing the saddle, make sure the top mount
lies close around the saddle rails and tighten both
Allen bolts to the indicated torque value of 4Nm.
