Installing the Seatposthugger :
So in case you have a standard or extended (60 mm longer plain) seatpost you just remove the saddle and slide the Seatposthugger onto the post.
Note: In case you have a pre 2017 Brompton with telescopic seatpost the secondary clamp is secured to the seatpost with a small Allen bolt and special nut inside the plastic sleeve. Undo the bolt with a properly fitting Allen key but be careful to not lose it or lose the washer. The little special nut can be pressed out with the bolt or the allen key. In case you have a seatpost bung on the underside the nut will fall inside the post and ends up on the bung. Turn around the seatpost to free the nut. If the seatpost has an open end the nut will fall on the ground, so be very careful not to lose it.
