Description:
Air Alloy tube is cold drawn and butted in critical areas to maintain strength and optimize weight. Forged and CNC machined from 6061 aluminum into their unique shape, the seat post heads are incredibly strong and fatigue resistant.
Customized shape allows for independent adjustments to be made for both the tilt and the lateral positioning of the saddle. The Allen bolt and rotator nut clamp allow the rider to obtain the preferred saddle angle, yielding perfect saddle positioning. As the bolt loosens on the nut, the inner circular assembly is free to rotate to the desired angle. This adjustment doesn't affect the fore/aft position of the saddle.
The Allen bolt and side clamps allow the rider to set the fore/aft positioning in the perfect spot. This adjustment is done independently of the saddle tilt- the perfect saddle position can be found quickly and easily. As the Allen bolt tightens, the side clamps squeeze towards each other and secure the rails firmly in place. Side clamps are beefed up with extra material in critical areas for increased strength and durability. Convenient height lines are laser etched above the minimum height line on the post, ensuring riders will be able to adjust their seat height quickly and easily after dropping it for the steep descents 1 inch rearward offset 330mm or 400mm long
