Lovely kit Jekyll man!

Oh, and hello from Disley! Where are you?

[mr.thi03]

was wondering how much is your seat post up..could you measure your seatpost from the rails to the clamp?

many thanks.....mr.thi03

Sorry i'm a bit slow replying - I've been at home and not at work

Measuring from the centre of the clamp to the centre of the rails is 150mm, with an SLR this gives me the correct height of 735mm.

This unfortunately leaves me with an itchey carbon seat post, or from the other direction, a Ritchey carb!
Hope this helps you

The rear got full of cuts, then started puncturing.
If i can pick up another pair of Michelins trhen I will.
Thats the problem when you're trying to lay down 2000W of raw power when climbing in the Dolomites!!

Or more likely its cos the roads round here are shite.....
