Seatpost - Specialized Levo Instruction Manual

When inserting the seatpost into the seat tube, the seatpost must not extend out of the seat tube beyond the
minimum insertion line on the seatpost. Do NOT cut the seat post short!
If the frame has a seat tube that extends above the topside of the top tube, Specialized recommends inserting the
seatpost into the seat tube so that the seatpost extends at least below the underside of the top tube (fig.2).
If the seat post is at the minimum insertion line and the saddle is not high enough, the seat post must be replaced
with a longer seat post.
Specialized Levo frames have a 30.9mm seatpost diameter and require that the seatpost have a tolerance of
30.78mm to 30.95mm.
WARNING! The seatpost and frame BOTH require a minimum amount of insertion into the frame in
order to maintain structural integrity (fig.2). If the minimum insertion depth required for the seatpost
and frame are different, always go with the deeper insertion depth. If you have any questions, refer to
your Authorized Specialized Retailer.
FSR MODELS ONLY: When running a saddle in a low position, it's important to fully compress the
rear end of the bicycle to ensure that the tire does not contact the saddle.
If using a carbon seatpost, do not apply grease to the interface between a carbon seatpost
and the seat tube. Grease can reduce the friction, which can prevent the seatpost from staying
at the desired height. Specialized recommends the application of carbon friction paste (or
assembly compound) to increase friction. See your Authorized Specialized Retailer for additional
information.
COMMAND POST IRcc: When adjusting the
position of the Command Post IRcc inside the
seat tube, remove the battery to gain access
to the internal housing, in order to guide the
housing when moving the seatpost. Please
refer to the Command Post IRcc instruction
guide for additional information.
For further instructions regarding the
installation of the seatpost, refer to the
appropriate section in the Owner's Manual.
