Right then  :D cant find a strait seat post, ideally a renthal one >:( . So what i am thinking is to get a nice shiny LB post and cut the fu....r down to get what i want  :-\ . Can this be done and have enough post left to do what its meant to do. then i can replace when i find what i want. What do peeps think or am i being impatient  ::) .

cheers all steve  :daumenhoch:

mamadirt:
I've done if before with no problems . . . but then I've even been known to cut down old steel riser bars to make layback posts  ;)

steve Beech TA:


I think i will hold out for a bit to see if any one comes up with a strait one  ::)

bobafett:
As you can see in the pic below mate the straight posts from renthal came in short and long versions and i reckon a chopped layback one would be about the same size as a shorty in this pic. Try removing the decal (heat it with a hair dryer and peel off might work ?) so you can re-apply after chopping (probably be too high up after chopping) or see Del to knock up a newun  ;)

Cheers mate  :daumenhoch: i will look for both any one got a LB post ::)
