Troubleshooting

Seatpost slips or moves during riding.

Tighten the seatpost clamp to the correct torque specification. Ensure the clamp is clean and free of debris. Consider using carbon assembly paste if the frame or seatpost is carbon.

Difficulty adjusting saddle angle.

Loosen the 2-bolt system bolts. Make small adjustments, tightening the bolts incrementally to prevent over-tightening. If the bolts are seized, apply penetrating oil and let it sit before attempting to loosen them.

Seatpost is stuck in the frame.

Try applying penetrating oil to the area where the seatpost enters the frame and let it sit for several hours or overnight. Gently twist the seatpost while pulling upwards. If this doesn't work, consult a bike mechanic to avoid damaging the frame.
