Will Cloud-9 saddles fit on my seatpost?Updated 7 months ago

Generally speaking, bike seats are considered universal, but a couple of variables can affect fit. 


• Any Cloud-9 saddle with a pre-installed clamp on the rails will have wider rail spacing and is best suited for use on pillar-style seatposts. 


• Any Cloud-9 saddle without a pre-installed clamp on the rails will have narrower rail spacing and is best suited for use on integrated clamp-style seatposts.

That said, interchangeability is still possible between these saddles and seatpost types, but it depends on the design of the integrated clamp seat post you're working with. Some designs are more forgiving than others, and deciding if your seat post will work isn't always obvious. If you are unsure, contact your local bike shop for help. Any experienced mechanic can quickly evaluate compatibility and advise what's possible. Alternatively, if your integrated clamp-style seat post isn't working, you can swap your existing seatpost for a pillar type. Just make sure to match your current size since seat posts come in different diameters and lengths.
