Seat post width


The Big Bad Norm

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Stupid question, but can someone tell me how to measure my seatpost width?

 

I need to buy a new one, and not sure if it is the post width or the frame width...

 

Many thanks

pull out the seatpost. put on reading glasses..... and voila be hold! if it is an alu post it is imprinted in the seatpost near the limit marker or take it to any decent lbs and the will tell you width just my looking at it( your eyes get trained in these things)

A vernier calliper should be able to tell you the width. I saw a cheapie at Game the other day for less than R20.

Take a tape measure and wrap it around the seatpost.

 

Input the circumference here to give you the diameter.

I like your style. Cuts through the crap.
