FAQs

Does the KS e20-i come with a remote?

No, the remote lever is sold separately. It is compatible with all KS Southpaw, KG, and Westy remotes.

Can I install this on a bike without internal routing?

No, this model is specifically designed for frames with internal cable routing ports.

How do I adjust the saddle angle?

The post features a micro-adjustable head clamp; loosen the side bolts to tilt the saddle, then tighten them to lock your position.

Is the air cartridge serviceable?

The post utilizes a sealed cartridge system which provides high reliability and is generally replaced as a unit if it fails.

What maintenance does the stanchion need?

Regularly wipe the stanchion clean after rides and apply a light bicycle suspension lube to maintain smooth operation.

Troubleshooting

Post is slow to return to full height

Check the cable tension at the remote and ensure there are no tight bends in the housing that could cause friction.

Saddle has vertical play or movement

Verify the saddle clamp bolts are tightened to the recommended torque specifications.

Remote lever feels hard to press

Inspect the cable housing for kinks or contamination; replace the cable and housing if internal friction is detected.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires a frame that supports internal seat post routing. Ensure the `27.2mm` diameter is correct for your specific bicycle frame, as seat tubes are not universal.

  1. Installation: Thread the actuator cable through the frame and secure it to the base of the seat post according to your remote's manual.
  2. Compatibility: This post is compatible with all KS Southpaw, KG, and Westy remotes. Ensure your remote is properly tensioned to allow for a smooth, reliable actuation.
  3. Care: Keep the stanchion clean of heavy mud or grit. Periodically wipe it down with a clean, lint-free cloth and apply a light bicycle-specific suspension lubricant to keep the movement fluid.
