Hi,

I have noticed that my Spesh Toupe saddle is slipping back on it's rails on a FSA K-Force seatpost. Not sure when it started doing this, but have moved it back forward 3 times in the last week. 1st time tightened up the bolt as per torque settings on post, then a wee bit tighter, still moves.

Any suggestions on how to stop it? Have read a few options of roughing up clamps with sandpaper, guess main fear on this is damage to saddle rails?

Thanks

  • Try tacx carbon assembly compound on the rails I had slipping selle smp and that worked a treat (even though it had steel rails).

    As well as the carbon paste on the rails, grease the clamp bolts too, I had the same trouble, cured with these two tricks.
