Title: Radwagon 4 seat post slipping
Post by: JESimmons on April 14, 2021, 05:41:41 AM
I've just bought a new Radwagon 4.  Assembly went fine except the main seat post will not stop sliding down.  I've adjusted the clamp until I can barely close it, and the seat post still slips right down.  If I leave it all the way down and extend the secondary post, that one clamps securely.  Any suggestions?

I have no need to adjust the post after the initial fitting.  Can anyone recommend a bolt on clamp that will fit properly?

took me a while too, but once the clamp assembly is lined up correctly it will work fine.
Unless the clamp you have turns out to be defective.

My seat post is covered in something that is silver like anti-seize compound used on bolts in automobiles.  Is this stuff supposed to be there?  It is clearly functioning as a lubricant of some kind.
