Fairwheel said "The specific construction of the Mcfk post means that it cannot be cut or shortened and can only be clamped in the reinforced area. Carbon assembly paste is strongly recommended when installing this post."

However, I am a short guy and must have to cut the seatpost, the shortest availabe one, i.e. 320mm doesn't fit me ...

May I know if any Mcfk users here had cut your seatpost and without experienced any issues.

Fairwheel is correct.. sell it and get a Darimo which comes in 250mm and has a kinder max insertion for us short guys.

Thx.

I'm riding on a cannondale which is 25.4mm, seems Darimo doesn't has 25.4mm (0 offset) seatpost....
