Extended Saddle Installation Guide

Follow the steps below to install an extended saddle on your e-bike.


Required Tools & Hardware

  • Extended saddle
  • 5 × M6 bolts with washers
  • 4mm Hex wrench
  • 5mm Hex wrench
  • 10mm Seat tool (or 10mm socket/wrench)
  • Wire cutters / flush cutters
  • Replacement zip ties

Step-by-Step Installation Instructions

  1. Remove tail light access bolts: Use a 4mm hex wrench to remove the two small bolts located behind the tail light to gain access to the rear seat nuts.
  2. Remove factory seat nuts: Locate the five seat nuts under the stock saddle and remove all five using a 10mm seat tool or socket wrench.
  3. Clear cable obstruction (if needed): Use wire cutters to clip any zip ties holding the controller cover or wiring under the seat if they block access to the mounting nuts.
  4. Install the extended saddle: Position the new extended saddle onto the frame. Insert the five M6 bolts with washers through the mounting points and tighten them securely using a 5mm hex wrench.
  5. Replace zip ties: Re-secure any wiring or covers using new zip ties and trim the excess tails.
  6. Reinstall tail light access bolts: Reinstall and tighten the two small bolts behind the tail light.
