3.2: WHYTE GETTA-GRIP SEAT CLAMP
The Getta Grip seat clamp design is a patented design to allow adjustment of the saddle
height by either the use of a Quick Release (QR) Lever, or bolt-up method. This manual
covers both styles of clamps.
Bolt-up T pe: Fig.2
Tools Required: 5mm Allen Key
(Note refer to the seat-pin manufacturers instructions in conjunction with these notes).
To adjust the seat height, using the mm Allen key, undo the M6 bolt ( ) just enough to allow
the seat-pin to slide freely up and down. Set the height to the desired level, and re-tighten the
M6 bolt ( ) with the mm Allen Key just enough so as to prevent the seat-pin from slipping down
and twisting.
Item: Description
1 Whyte Seat Clamp Band
2 T-Pad
3 Whyte Main Frame Seat Tube
4 Adjuster Nut
M6 x 2 mm Long Fastener
6 M6 Washer
