Ergotec Futura

Post by vandjq »

I bought one of these very expensive seat posts in order to get my Brooks B17 saddle further back so I can achieve KOPS. However I am finding it very difficult to adjust as there is only one bolt holding it together. When I loosen that bolt I lose all ability to level the saddle:

I know there was a post on this subject by 531colin a year ago and reohn2 said he managed to adjust it OK, but I can't figure it out. Any advice would be warmly appreciated. :(

Although the clamps around the rails are secured with a dedicated bolt, the main single bolt serves to tighten both the tilt of the clamps and the tilt of the big pivot. Combined with the fact that the rail clamps have notches that made adjustment to get the set back and tilt that I wanted slightly finnicky.
