Fitting and removing the seatpost
and saddle
Risk of personal injury and material damage!
An incorrectly mounted seatpost can lead to
dangerous riding situations, crashes, accidents
and damage to the bike.
Ask your dealer to show you how to fit and
remove your seatpost.
Practice removing and fitting the seatpost at
least once under his supervision. Only assemble
and disassemble the seatpost and saddle if you
are sure that you have mastered all the steps.
When transporting your bike, you can remove
the seatpost and saddle and re-mount them
when you are at your destination.
To loosen or tighten the seatpost, you need the
appropriate Allen key and a torque wrench. Ask
your dealer for more information about this.
This is how to remove the seatpost:
- Open the saddle clamp by loosening the
hexagon socket screw with the appropriate
Allen key.
Correct position of the brake shoes.

 •Squeezethebrakes.
 •Ifonlyoneofthetwobrakepadstouches
the rim, this may indicate that the hub has
been positioned incorrectly in the fork.

release, check the position of the hub,
perform any corrections and close the quick
release again.

Pull the seatpost and saddle out of the frame.
This is how to mount the seatpost:
If the seatpost and seat tube are made of
metal:
- Grease the part of the seatpost that is
inserted in the seat tube with mounting
paste.
If the seatpost and/or seat tube are made of
carbon:
- The part that is clamped must be free of any
fatty substances, or you can use a special
mounting paste which is suitable for carbon
components.
Loosening the clamping screw.
Seatposts on a complete Isaac Cycle bike:
- Push the saddle and seatpost pin into the
seat tube until it is at the desired seat height.
- The seatpost must be pushed into the tube
at least until the ‘minimum’ mark is no longer
visible.
Seatposts selected from the range of
accessories:
- Push the saddle and seatpost pin into the
seat tube until it is at the desired seat height.
- If there is a ‘minimum’ mark indicated on the
seatpost, the seatpost must be pushed into
the tube at least until this no longer visible.
- If the minimum mark is not indicated, the
lower end of the seatpost must be at least
3 cm below the lower edge of the top frame
tube.
Note the following instructions.
Do not rely solely on the mark on the seatpost.
