Seat is tilted upwards quite a bit on my new endurance. I’ve been looking on YouTube and I’m not seeing how to get the seat level! Can someone please enlighten me? I’m only able to slide it forward/back. Thanks.

You have to remove the seat post and loosen bolt on the bottom to make any adjustments.
To adjust the tilt, you adjust the relative positions of each half of the seat post when it gets clamped within the seat tube. To tilt the nose down, you slide the front half of the seat post lower/deeper into the seat tube, and vice versa.
If you refasten the screw, pay attention to the torque. You really don’t want to overtighten it.
I have that post (but with 0 setback) on my Inflite. The factory torque on the bolt at the bottom of the seatpost was insufficient. I found that out the hard way in a gravel race, when the saddle tilted up.
You need to remove the seatpost from the frame, loosen the bolt at the bottom of the post, and adjust the back/front bars to your desired saddle tilt. There should be a guideline on the side with lines that will align when the post is at 0deg tilt. Unless you really care for something different, it’s probably best to set it at 0deg.. tighten the bolt to torque spec once the lines are aligned.
