Looking for some advice on a seatpost shim for a db pro star I'm putting together.
I have a post that will fit (dia 25mm on my vernier) but it's a bit grotty and I'd like to use a nice fluted 22.2 if possible. I've had a look at what shims are about but nothing looks suitable, any ideas fellas?
Thanks in advance :daumenhoch:

I have seen these type of shims in Halfords mate maybe you could check them out ?
Good luck.

What colour you doing it.

Cheers lads
Managed to find a 22.2 to 25.4 shim so hopefully will work as I just found a nos red and silver fluted post which should look sweet I reckon.
Colour scheme is white frame and forks ( how it came) with red parts. It'll have chrome win v bars that I picked up at mk last year and a nice set of 1.50 ukais in silver with red Suzue hubs. Not strictly factory spec but I reckon it'll look sweet.
'Twas my first BMX back in the day so have been looking out for one for ages! :smitten:

The seatpost is 24.8mm on a DB Pro-Star, my first BMX too and I've owned/built a few. :daumenhoch:
