Cannot get saddle level...
Attempting to mount this turbo and I can't get it to point any direction other than aggressively down. As it sits in this picture it isn't even completely tightened. Any tighter and it continues to point downwards.

Show us what the seatpost-saddle rail connection looks like.

Underneath the saddle is the mount, with one tightening bolt. Loosen the bolt and tip the saddle up or down, as required. Chances are you should take the whole top of the seat post apart, clean it and look at the serrations of the mount. They might be just fine, or they could need some cleaning up. Once inspected and ensured that all is well, assemble the unit, with the saddle loosely installed. Then set the angle you want and snug the single bolt, on the saddle post top up. Check your tilt and, if satisfied, tighten the assembly enough to ensure that it will not slip or tilt when in use.
Hope that is a help. |
Well, that's embarrassing! Went to try again using your advice and realized that the bottom plate of the mount actually slides for adjustment, but it was so stuck I didn't realize it the first time.

Same thing happened to me once...its all a learning experience

I usually have to give the back of the saddle a good whack with the heel of my hand.

[MENTION=45088]nlerner[/MENTION] - for some strange reason, "Saddle Whacking " is a phrase that could be more commonly used to describe what happens when you go over a bump and the saddle moves position..

If you haven't done it yet, you'll have a lot of fun trying to figure out how to mount and adjust a saddle on a Campy 2 bolt NR seatpost.....:rolleyes::D

It is easier if you get a slotted saddle. |
