SADDLE INSTALLATION
• Lubricate the seatpost and insert it into the frame. Do not exceed the line of minimum insertion. Mount it using the
quick-release mechanism or bolt. Before tightening, read the specified tightening torques carefully.
• Adjust the saddle angle so that it is levelled horizontally. Tighten the saddle lock.
• Try to turn the saddle in order to check the tightening.
NOTE: The saddle can be adjusted in the close or distant position with respect to the handlebars. This adjustment
can be done by shifting the saddle in two coulisses and locking the saddle seatpost lock or by proper
tightening the nut.
CAUTION: Never move the stem above the maximum or stop mark.
CARBON SEATPOST INSTALLATION
• Never lubricate the seatpost with lubricating grease.
• Use only special FSA paste (dynamic assembly paste) for installation.
INSTALLATION OF BREAK LINES FOR MOUNTAIN AND DIRT BIKES
Front brake cable:
• Insert the cable barrel into a clamp in the left-hand brake lever.
• Pull the cable through the bowden and cable guide and then tighten the brake arm bolt.
• Push the jaws towards each other so that a play of 2-4 mm will remain between the brake pads and the rim.
• Then tighten the screw of the brake arm holding the cable.
• Cut the excessive cable away so that free end will have a length of about 40 mm.
• Put a protective cap on the cable end and squeeze it with pliers.
• Depress the protective cable cap with a torque of 20 mm.
Rear brake cable:
• The procedure is identical to the installation of the front brake cable. The right-hand brake lever is used for the rear brake.
