Same dilemma here.

Looking for a lighter stubby, 34.9mm in diameter with lesser setback.
Anyone here with information on where to get a 34.9mm MCFK topper please PM me.

Question:
I don’t see topper seatmast available at Darimo. Are those custom? I wonder if Berk can make us one...

Cheers!
you should email Martin at MCFK. great guy to deal with, I got my first one while it was still available on their late website. the second purchase was directly from him and custom sizing (length and offset). Jure @ berk also makes it and can customize as well, im sure of it since I almost got it made by him some years ago, but he was up front about it and said he was rather busy launching the saddles at the time.

Yup, the Darimo one is custom, but for a lot less then I was expecting. Plus, I have had issues fitting titanium ISPs on my custom frame due to specs.

Damia s able to make one up to my requirements, without to 2 much fuss.

I did sent an email to Martin, asking if he’s able to produce a one off unit for me however his reply was “we produce MCFK stubby no more”..

@PyreoFyre
Thanks for the info.
Will get in touch with Darimo soon.

Cheers

Hi maverick_1 lemme know if you get to contact Darimo. I'm looking for a lighter one than my Tune Topper for my Festka. Maybe ordering 2 could net a better price? :)

Smud can also make custom seatmast toppers.

@shotgun,
Noted, will PM you if anything.
Just to confirm that I need a 34.9mm diameter with a slight offset of approx 10mm (setback).
Preferably in 3k weaving (not a fan of UD)
Can I presume yours will be similar as well?

@MichaelK,
Thanks for the heads up on Smud.
Most appreciated.

Cheers

Confirmed on details above. 10mm setback is workable for me. 3K weave is OK as well.

Sorry to revive this thread here, but wondering if anyone had either any alternative options (have emailed smud this morning) and hopefully a spare woodman IT zero offset mast topper in 34.9mm to sell?
