Could one put a 3T doric lower mount on one of these lighter option posts? I just don't trust having such a small contact area.

Anyone know of a stubby that builds higher than the 70 mm Ritchey stubby?

Just got an email from Guru that said that Ritchey has had a problem with their molds and production on their ISP seatmasts so they are now using Woodmans on all of their new orders.

With that said I ordered the Tune because I need something with Zero Offset and I am going to use my Doric lower cradle. I won't lose as much weight, but I don't really care and I will probably end up painting it flat black because the Tune logo is so damn ugly.

Mine comes in 4 days. Using the 3T lower because I have a carbon railed saddle on the way. Anyone have any advice for painting it flat black?

R-2 bikes won't have any 30mm caps for 2 weeks or more just an FYI.

(http://www.adrenalinebikes.com) The website is a little slow and you can only find it on their site by searching all Woodman products, but it is there. I figured $85 isn't bad for the weight (and the fact that I desperately need one!). I'm sure that any shop who can order Woodman products can probably get them.

BTW - I have a 34.9 Ritchey stubby if anyone is interested...

Hey man, I actually have a pedal force CG1 as well, and I'm very interested in the tune cappy. I'd love to hear what you've got to say about it and see some pictures. Also where did you order yours from

Could you take a regular seatpost like a Thompson cut the post domn to 50mm or so, and stick that in the top of isp with a regular seatpost clamp?
