Has anyone else had any probem with their saddle gradually sliding backwards on their Ergopost? I have to adjust mine every few rides - it normally slides back about 5-10mm every few days. I always tighten the saddle bolt about as much as it will take, and even a bit more than I am comfortable with, since I am worried about cracking the carbon. I don't think the problem is the saddle (a Selle Italia SLC), since I have an identical saddle on a single-bolt FSA post on my other bike and that saddle never moves.

Anyone else experienced the sliding saddle with an Ergopost? Any ideas to solve it? I may just have to get an FSA K-Force Lite instead, but I'd prefer to stick with the Look post on my 585 unless absolutely necessary.

Grease the threads

I had the same problem with my ergopost. Greasing the threads seemed to cure it.

Which threads? The bolt on the saddle clamp? Not quite sure how that would help but I'm willing to give it a try.

Yes. I had the same problem, and lubing the clamp bolt fixed it.

Yes, the clamp bolt

With grease on the bolt will stay put better and should solve the problem

Okay, thanks guys, I'll give that a try.
