BIKE SETUP SPECIFICATIONS
Seatpost height
SEATPOST MINIMUM INSERTION
1
: To prevent damage to the frame, it’s important to have a
minimum amount of seatpost in the seat tube.
Carbon frames:
Small / Medium: minimum 70mm insertion Large / X-Large: minimum 100mm insertion
Aluminum frames:
Certain frames are equipped with a sight hole, which is a small hole located approximately 70-
100mm below the seat collar (fig.1). The sight hole must not be confused with the seat collar slot
(fig.1), which is a narrow slot (approx 1-1.5” long) that extends down from the top of the seat tube to
allow the frame to tighten around the seat post.
If your frame is equipped with a sight hole on the seat tube, the seat post MUST be visible through
the sight hole, AND the seat post must NOT project from the frame beyond the min/max mark. Use
the sight hole in conjunction with the min/max mark on the seat post. If the seat post is at the min/
max mark and the seat post is not visible through the sight hole (frames equipped with a sight hole),
the seat post is not inserted deeply enough into the seat tube and should be lowered until it can be
seen through the sight hole. Do NOT cut the seat post short!
If your seat post is at the min/max mark and/or the seat post is not visible through the sight hole
(frames equipped with a sight hole) and the saddle is not high enough, the seat post must be
replaced with a longer seat post.
WARNING! If your seatpost is not inserted deep enough into the seat tube, the seatpost
may break, which could cause you to lose control and fall.
NOTE: When running a saddle in a low position, it’s important to fully compress the rear end
of the bicycle to ensure that the tire doesn’t contact the saddle. This is especially important on
longer travel bicycles.
Demo Carbon: Minimum insertion depth (all sizes): 100mm.
Refer to the Specialized Bicycle Owner’s Manual for additional seatpost insertion information.
Frame linkage assembly
Specialized recommends following a specific order when assembling the rear triangle pivot locations
of FSR suspension bike models
2
.
A. Main pivot
B. Main link pivot
C. Horst link or link @ seatstay pivot
D. Lower shock eye or yoke pivot
E. Upper shock eye
Assembling the upper or lower pivots of the seatstay as a last step makes it easier to align the parts
and hold the washers in place.
Down tube cable guide installation
Certain Specialized FSRs are equipped with bolt-on down tube cable guides
3
under the down
tube (3- or 4-cable bats). For proper housing placement and function, the hydraulic rear brake
housing goes in the larger (non-drive-side) inner slot, while the gear cables (4mm only) go on the
outside.
Telescoping seatposts with internal routing require the 4-cable bats, with the cable (4mm only) going
in the narrower (drive-side) inner slot.
A. Blue: Gear (narrow outer slots)
B. Red: Brake (larger inner slot)
C. Green: Seatpost (narrower inner slot)
D. Triple or Quad bat rubber base (standard)
E. Triple or Quad bat rubber base (extended)
F. Triple or Quad bat alloy holder
G. Drive-side
H. Non-drive-side
I. Seatpost housing entry port
J. Down tube
NOTE: Stumpjumper Carbon / Enduro models use 2 x
D
and 1 x
E
. Stumpjumper Alloy /Camber Alloy models use 3 x
D
.
Do not overtighten the guide bolts! Too much pressure can squeeze the cable housings, creating friction and poor shifting for the cables.
Torque: 30 in-lbf (3.4 Nm).
Status models: The housings are routed on top of the down tube.
142+ rear axle
Certain Specialized bike models are equipped with a 142+ rear axle system, which requires the use of a proprietary Specialized 142+ wheel, or a 142mm
compatible wheel. For additional information regarding compatibility, please refer to the Roval Hub Compatibility Guide at www.specialized.com.
Accessories
Specialized offers replacement chainstay protectors for most FSR models, available through your Authorized Specialized Dealer.
