Hi there,
I need some advise on how to solve a problem that i´ve got.
I'm looking for a seatpost which is not easily available in the size 27.2 that my frame got. It has to be a Campagnolo mtb seatpost and the only ones I see, is either 27.0 or 26.6.
So my questions are:
Can I use the tin can solution on a 27.0 with a decent result?
Or can I use a trimmed down shim for the 26.6 post?
The latter could be trimmed (rolled) to fit into a 27.2 tube or is it a far out idea? (I would simply enlarge the already existing sleeve in the shim and then roll it to match the 27.2 mm. seattube.
I hope you guys could help me out on this one!
