The seat, the part you sit on when riding a bike, is held in place by the seatpost (Figure 2). The seatpost binder secures the seatpost in the frame. Proper adjustment of each component is important for your comfort and pedaling efficiency. This section explains how to inspect, adjust, and lubricate your seat, seatpost, and seatpost binder.

Inspect your seatpost regularly

Every month inspect the seatpost quick-release lever, or seat post binder bolt, and seat fixing bolt (Figure 2) for proper tightness. Make sure the seat is secure by attempting to turn the seat and seatpost in the frame, and attempt to move the front of the seat up and down. If the seat rotates, is loose, or moves up and down, tighten the binder bolt or quick-release, or seat fixing bolt, and repeat the test. Never engage the seatpost binder with the seatpost out of the frame.

Tighten the following bolts:

• Seat post binder (Figure 2): 85-125 lb•in (9.6-14.1 Nm).

• Seat fixing bolt: 120-130 lb•in (13.6-14.7 Nm).

For a seatpost binder using a quick-release lever, the mechanism

Figure 2- Seatpost partsworks the same as a wheel quick-release. Adjust the lever tension, and make sure it is in the CLOSED position.
