All Hope Carbon Seatposts are manufactured in their facility in Barnoldswick, England.
Clean the seat tube and post thoroughly, then apply a fresh layer of carbon assembly paste and ensure the seat tube clamp is tightened to the correct torque.
Disassemble the rail clamps, clean all mating surfaces, apply a light coat of grease to the bolt threads, and re-torque to specifications.
This seatpost measures 27.2mm in diameter and 350mm in length; always verify your frame seat tube diameter before installation. Because this is a high-performance carbon component, it is essential to use a high-quality carbon assembly paste to prevent slippage and avoid over-tightening the seat tube clamp. Use a torque wrench during installation to adhere to the frame manufacturer’s recommended torque specifications. To maintain the post, periodically inspect the aluminum rail clamps for signs of wear and keep the rail contact surfaces clean of grit to prevent carbon abrasion.
