WARNING
The following warnings are EXTREMELY IMPORTANT! Please take some time to
read through these warnings clearly and make sure you understand them before
using the dropper seatpost. If you have questions about any of the below or
the installations, please contact us immediately. Ignoring or failure to do so
may cause serious malfunction that often leads to serious injury or death.
– Ensure the seat post diameter is correct and follow the specifications of
your frame. Diameter mismatching will result in slippage or failure, causing
serious injury or death.
– Ensure the seat post is inserted to at least the minimum insertion line. If
minimum insertion line is exposed it can cause the post and/or frame to fail.
– Always make sure that the saddle is already installed onto the saddle clamp,
and correctly tightened before activating the remote lever. Avoid looking
directly on top of the head tube when activating lever or release mechanism.
– When finished adjusting the Adjustable Travel Bushing, always make sure
nothing is in the way of the Upper Tube and the alignment is straight and well
when inserting back
to the Outer Tube. Stop pushing in when feeling resistance and seek preffered
bicycle shop with this manual for assistance. Failing to do so may cause
damage to the internals of the seat post and malfunction.
-Always make sure nothing is in the way of the seat tube when the seat post is inserted to the frame. Forcing the seat post into the frame when feeling resistance could cause
damage to the frame. Especially with some full-suspension design frames,
pivots or bends in the seat tube could prohibit the post from being inserted
to desired height.
– Always ensure Seatpost Collar fully tightened after adjusting the Adjustable
Travel Bushing, and before riding.
– Always keep the upper tube clean and lubricated before ride for optimal
performance.
– Keep the seat post in fully extended (up) position when storing for extended
periods.
– Always have an experienced bicycle mechanic in your preffered bicycle shop
to perform the installation of the seat post with this manual.
– Following any crash, please have a certified mechanic inspect your seat post
and bike for damage to ensure the seat post is still safe to ride.
– Always wear a helmet and ride within your limits.
