Step 5
Put the seat tube in a
horizontal position. Use the
Cutting Guide to guide the
hacksaw blade to achieve a
straight, perpendicular cut.
NOTE:
To avoid fraying the composite
fibers. Use a fine tooth (32 tooth) saw
blade.
NOTE:
Be sure to wear appropriate safety
equipment, such as glasses, gloves and a
dust mask. Make sure not to inhale any of
the dust!
NOTE:
Take care when finishing the cutting
process to not splinter the composite.
Step 6
Carefully sand-down any burrs with fine emery paper.

Then, install the saddle onto
the seatpost and rechecking
the Target Saddle Height.
If the SADDLE HEIGHT is still lower than the target
(or when you want to fine tune saddle height in the
future), you should use the included ISP seat clamp
spacers to add the saddle height.
There are three selections: 10mm (1pc), 5mm (1pc),
and 3mm (2pcs).
NOTE:
If the end of the integrated seat post
is not touching the base of the seat clamp
structure, the integrated seatpost may
break and result in a serious accident.
