Hi, guys.
It is compatible Becker carbon or speedneedle at Bont. XXX lite(34.0mm)?
Do you have some recommendation for 34.0mm seatpost?
I want to keep my Becker saddle! :(

Thanks!

Anybody know if Speedneedle is compatible with Fun Works S-Light seatpost?

Here is some pics of the clamp. The holes in the lower clamp looks kind of small but i think it's very similar to KCNC?

Anybody? Im afraid that the holes of the lower clamp are too small and the edges bite into the carbon rails of the saddle causing some damage.

I did some research and the seatpost is same as Woodman Carbo EL.

I mailed 3T customer service about this and got an answer three hours later:
"The DORIC and DORICO posts can handle both round and all popolar oval shape rails."

So...probably then? :beerchug:

Anybody knows whether the speedneedle fits on a cannondale/use carbon seatpost? That special type which allows bending aft and forward. A selle italia slr carbon does not fit by the way. Or shall I just use a longer bolt for the 1 bolt clamping system ?
