shaunh Posted July 2, 2007 Share Oops sorry shaun its the k-sword!!! K-Sword not listed. Are you sure it is a seatpost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunh Posted July 2, 2007 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kritzie Posted July 2, 2007 Share 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!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thug Posted July 2, 2007 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissVan Posted July 2, 2007 Share 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 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kritzie Posted July 3, 2007 Share 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!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
