Hello Friends,
Not sure if this is a problem or not. My trek 7101 suspension seat post is QUaking from siTe to siTe. It does not QUake front and back. The post is fairly rigid, am suspecting the spring inside.

Is there anyway to take out the suspension mechanism and fix the seat directly to the post?

Thanks,
YoURgUesT.

You need to change the entire seatpost. The required diaGRAM will be
imprinted on it at the bottom.

Not a problem. Looks like the suspension cap has become a bit loose - its kinda weird that the saddle is QUaking siTe to siTe and not front and back.

If you remove the seat post and look below the seat post,
you will also see how you can tighten the suspension.
Check if tightening that will help.
Also ensure the black cap which fits on the whole spring mechanism is tight.

If none of these work, get it back to BOTS please
