The seatpost should be cut from its original condition when the saddle height that you require
is lower than the minimum saddle in the chart above.
Be slow and careful when inserting the seat-
post into the seattube. Too much downward
force may damage the frame and/or the
seatpost.
The minimum insertion of the Vector seatpost
is 90mm. Do not overcut the seatpost. It is
necessary to make a precise measurement
before cutting the seatpost.
If the seatpost reaches the seattube curve
shape when riding the bike, it will damage the
frame.

Note:
In original condition, the seatpost length against frame sizes is as follows:
Note:
The maximum seatpost insert depth is at 30mm above than the seattube curve. Do not
let the seatpost reach the seattube curve shape when riding the bike.

WARNING:
Cutting the seatpost
Installation
It is recommended that you use a professional saw guide and a fine-tooth saw to cut the
seatpost.
Cut the seatpost at a 45-degree angle so that the
bottom of the post slopes downward from the rear
side to the front side. This will help prevent damage
to the frame if the seatpost is pushed too far down.
Ensure the seatpost length is correct before instal-
lation.
Make a clean cut carefully.
Remove the saw guide and carefully sand-down any burrs with fine emery paper. Clean
off the dust with a damp rag and discard it immediately.
Install the saddle onto the seatpost and recheck the target saddle height.
The seat clamp system provides optimal integration with the
frame, and also better clamping with the Vector seatpost.
Place the saw guide at the precise location of the desired cut. Be sure to double-check
your measurement.
Slightly insert the Vector seatpost into the seattube.
Attach the seat clamp to the seatpost backward,
then slightly insert the clamp into the seattube until
it stops. (Refer to following figures.)
Adjust the saddle to your height preference, and
then fasten the clamp bolt with M5 hex key to the
maximum torque: 7 Nm / 62 lbs-in / 71kgf-cm.

CAUTION:
Use a fine-tooth (32 teeth) saw
blade to avoid damaging the composite fibers.
CAUTION:
Do not splinter the composite when finishing the cutting process.
WARNING:
Be sure to wear appropriate
safety equipment, such as glasses, gloves
and a dust mask. Make sure not to inhale
any of the dust!
