SEAT
WARNING: The seatpost must be inserted far enough so that the minimum insertion marks cannot be seen.
Add some white grease to the inside of the seat tube, and slide the seatpost into the bicycle. Make sure that the minimum
insertion mark is completely covered and that the seat is pointing forward in alignment with the bicycle (see Figures 4 and 5).
CAUTION: Operate the quick release lever by hand only. Do not use a hammer or any other tool to tighten the quick release lever.
To install the seat post reflector, first remove the seatpost and saddle from the bike. Use (A) Standard Phillips Head
Screwdriver to loosen the screw on the clamp of the reflector until you can slide the reflector over the seat post. Once the
reflector is on the seat post, reinsert the seat post back into the seat tube. Position the reflector so that it is perpendicular
to the ground, and move it up on the seat post until it can be seen above the tire when viewing the bike from the rear
(see Figure 6).
If your bike has a quick release lever (see Figure 7), tighten it by holding the lever in the "open" position and tightening the
nut on the opposite side by hand. Slowly close the quick release lever, and you should notice resistance when the lever is
half way shut. Firmly continue to push the lever until it is in the "closed" position, and the word "close" is showing. The seat
should not be able to move back and forth, up and down, or side to side with the quick release lever in the closed position.
Make sure the lever is also parallel with the seat clamp itself. You should only need one hand to close the quick release
lever. If you need two hands, the seat clamp is too tight. Loosen the nut on the clamp until only one hand is needed to close
the seat clamp.
If your bike has a standard seat clamp (see Figure 8), use (B) an Adjustable Wrench(es) to tighten the nut securely. If your
bike has a bolt on seat clamp (see Figure 9), use (C) a 4, 5, or 6 mm Allen Wrench to tighten the bolt securely. The seat
should not be able to move back and forth, up and down, or side to side with the seat clamp tightened.
