GB4 Air Seat Construction Instructions
 

I've written some detailed air seat insructions (with pictures!) for
carbon fiber bases using Reeder and GB handles.

http://www.gb4mfg.com/gb4/air_seat.pdf

Nothing earth shattering, but I thought I'd post it for anyone
considering doing an air seat conversion. Obviously the instructions
would be fairly similar for Miyata bases and other handles.

I did this for an English class (technical communication), so they're
kind of pedantic.

What's to stop the rear bumper's bolts from spinning when you want to
disassemble the saddle? The duct tape?

I would have thought that you could get away with non-coach bolts
everywhere else, except on the rear bumper...

I'ved used plain hex head cap screws on all of my rear bumpers for some
time. I can do this because I do NOT use nylon lock nuts. I just get
the hex nuts tight enough to snug up the bumper.

Between the duct tape and holding/pinching the bolts through the seat
cover I haven't had a problem.
