Post by: john4130 on March 15, 2012, 09:38 PM
i'm after a 22.2 pivotal seatpost  around 8" long. does anybody know of any company making them or is anybody on here capable of making one? the only one's i can find are 5.3" long and i already have one of those. i hate having a low seat.

A few BMX companies are starting to do longer pivotal posts now, as more pro riders are beginning to ride with longer posts..  If you don't get sorted, I'll take a look at some of my suppliers tomorrow..  See what's out there.  :daumenhoch:

Cheers

Are you sure you want a 22.2 not a 25.4?  Custom riders have some 25.4 ones in 300mm long. Also s&m are to bring out long pivotals soon.  :daumenhoch:

yeah 22.2, i,ve got a new macneil frame but the highest i can raise the seatpost is about 3". an extra couple of inches would be better. funnily enough thats exactly what my girlfriend says too.  :-\

Hey buddy...  Well I deal with over 20 BMX suppliers who have upteen BMX brands on offer and the chaps are right.  No one else (other than the above) does a 22.2 at the moment (25.4 being the current standard).   :-\

Looks like you may have to have one 'made' as suggested above.  Should not be too much of a prob me thinks.  Sorry bro

Cheers

Max
