Installing and positioning the seat post
Insert the seat post into the seat tube of the frame and, after positioning the saddle correctly, secure the seat post firmly using
the special clamping device (seat post clamp) on the frame.
DANGER
Minimum insertion seat post insertion limit
For structural and safety reasons, it is strictly forbidden, when using the bike, to extract the seat post from the seat tube of
the frame beyond the limit indicated on the latter to avoid the risk of causing any structural fractures to the bike and incurring
serious injuries.
The seat post is deemed to be correctly and safely positioned inside the seat tube of the frame by inserting it so that no
markings and/or graphic indication of the minimum insertion limit can be seen; see:
Correct position
Incorrect position
Installing the pedals
Locate the right pedal (marked with the letter R) and left pedal (marked with the letter L).
Fit the right pedal (R) by inserting the threaded pin of the pedal into the corresponding crank arm on the right side of the bike
and screwing it clockwise (turn it towards the front wheel) until it is tightened using a 15mm wrench.
Fit the left pedal (L) by inserting the threaded pin of the pedal into the corresponding crank arm on the left side of the bike
and screwing it anticlockwise (turn it towards the front wheel) until it is tightened using a 15mm wrench.
CAUTION
Verify and regularly check that the various bolted elements, fastening screws, quick releases and pass-through pins are
correctly tightened, and perform an overall check to ensure that all the parts are in order.
The nuts and all the other self-tightening parts can become loose so, these components need to be periodically checked and
tightened.
The recommended tightening torques for fastening the specific parts/components on the bike (e.g. handlebars, handlebar
attachment and stem, saddle, saddle clamp, wheels, etc.) can be identified depending on the relevant elements. An average
torque of 20Nm can be used for all other fastenings.
Verification of the correct tightening of the parts/components through lever systems (quick release, handlebar attachment,
seatpost collar, etc.), in the absence of technically precise indications of the relative values, can be done by testing that the
