shaunh Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 Oops sorry shaun its the k-sword!!! K-Sword not listed. Are you sure it is a seatpost?
shaunh Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 Whilst looking for your k-sword torque specs, stumbled across this info. It should be borne in mind that there is naturaldeterioration of the strength values of the stemhandlebarsystem depending on its specific use(competitive use, frequency of use, road conditions).ITM recommends its replacement eachcompetitive season or, in any case, when youexceed a distance of about 40 thousand kilometres
Kritzie Posted July 2, 2007 Author Posted July 2, 2007 K sword is listed under the 2006 catalogue but not under the torque section I suppose it should also be between 7-8???? There are pictures of the seatpost as well so Im not completly loosing it!!

AndreZA Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 Thanks for the help guys gotta run Why, what did you eat?
Thug Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 I'm surprised that no-one has told you to tighten it until you hear a crack and then loosen it by half-a-turn.
SwissVan Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 I'm surprised that no-one has told you to tighten it until you hear a crack and then loosen it by half-a-turn. FS!! People shouldn't be allowed to own carbon unless they know how to handle it.. Tight is tight, to tight is F..KED, by another and try again.

racman Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Had a similar problem a while ago and, after much valuable advice about grease and seatpost clamps, eventually discovered that my LBS had inserted an adaptor/ spacer to convert to a smaller seatpost. Once I removed the insert and purchased a new, correct size seatpost etc the problem disapeared.
Kritzie Posted July 3, 2007 Author Posted July 3, 2007 Took my bike to the local LBS and met the mechanic that knows everything. Watched him do his craft and after he finished the post was tightened but the seat loose, he then proceeded to tell me that he cannot do his best work if he is watched, stripped my moer and told him that nobody works on my bike if I dont watch. What a nuckfut!!! Will test it this weekend!! Thanks for all the help guys and gals!!!
Sammajoor Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I'm surprised that no-one has told you to tighten it until you hear a crack and then loosen it by half-a-turn. NO NO NO you tighten it till you strip it then a half turn back and your'e in business..... Sterkte Kritzie ek is ook mmar bang om sommer enige jakatrak op my liefie te laat werk net twee fiets caffies werk op HOM Karstens en Morne Bester Cycles kan hulle werk vertrou en na verkope diens ook
