How to tighten your seat post

To set your saddle correctly, it's important to fasten your seat post properly. A loose seat clamp runs the risk of your saddle dropping during your ride. On the other hand, if you tighten it too much, you might crush your seat post and therefore damage your bike.    The best way of tightening your seat post is to use a torque wrench. We recommend tightening to 6 to 7 Nm.   Be careful not to exceed the maximum height shown on the seat post.
