Hi all,

Can anyone advise on how to remove the black seat adjustment knob as per photo attached?

Hi Steven,
There is a hole in the back to pop the cover.  The wheel is then held in position by a large phillips screw if I remember correctly.  I have rounded the sharp end of an old phillips screw driver, then gave it a 90* bend about an inch or so from the rounded end. Find the hole in the back, I think there might be two, stick the 90 degree bend into the hole and pop the cover off.

you can also use an allen key to get behind the knob and push through the hole. I think there are two holes so you can push it out evenly.

Thanks guys.

Shall give it a go.

All sorted now.  Tapped it off with an old screwdriver with a broken tip.

Cheers
