Locate the two AR saddle clamp
Lowers and place each onto a
saddle clamp Upper, aligning
the holes with the oval-shaped
holes of the saddle clamp
Uppers as illustrated below.
Step 2
The parts should appear as the
image on the left, in two stacks
of three pieces, with the bolt,
nut and seatpost remaining.
Step 3
Locate the two AR saddle clamp
Uppers and place each into a
saddle clamp adjustment Head
Half, positioning them so the
hooked surfaces are adjacent
and can grip a seatpost rail.

The chamfer of the adjustment
head half will be placed in
contact with the chamfered
surface of the seatpost. Apply
friction paste between surfaces.
Being cautious to maintain
the order of parts in each
stack, turn each stack
upside down on the table
so now the threads face
away from the table.
Place the bolt and nut threads-
down into the holes of the two
stacks of pieces as pictured,
aligning tooth on nut to slot in
saddle lower clamp.

Step 4
Note: Grease bolt threads.

Pick up one stack and place it thread-side down into the
seatpost so the chamfer of the adjustment head half is in
contact with the chamfer of seatpost alloy insert as pictured.
Holding the remaining stack of pieces in place on the other
side of the seatpost, align the bolt threads with the nut threads
and tighten 2 to 3 turns.
