Testing Seat Clamp and Post Clamp Tightness
To test the tightness of the seat clamp and the post clamp:
• Try to turn the seat side-to-side and to move the front of the seat up and down.
• If the seat moves in the seat clamp:
• Loosen the Seat clamp nut.
• Put the seat in the correct position and tighten the seat clamp tighter than before.
• Do this test again, until the seat does not move in the seat clamp.
• If the seat post moves in the seat tube clamp:
• Loosen the seat clamp lever.
• Put the seat post in the correct position and tighten the seat clamp nut tighter than
before.
• If necessary, tighten or loosen hand nut so that quick release tightens securely.
• Do this test again, until the seat post does not move in the seat tube clamp.
