Hi all,

I have a Specialised Sirrus Elite and sat up on it today and almost fell straight off when the saddle twisted 90 degrees to the left!

It is twisting at the part where the suspension ends, (see pic) not where you loosen the saddle to raise/lower the height. It is turning around 360 degrees.

Any suggestions on what might be wrong / what I need to do? Everything is tight so thats not an issue.

Thanks in advance

From what I can see the pin (which looks a bit like pic below) which is supposed to slot into the inner (greasy) bar in the suspension and stop it from turning.

Is this simply worn out?

Does anyone know if it can be replaced?

Cheers
