Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Yup, the old 100mm feels the same as the new 125mm. Going to try look at externak routing but put the post in first to see if it will make a difference. If not, the route as before but just dont extend the seat at full height.I'm actually serious about the innersoles though. That, and putting longer pins in your pedals.

AlanD Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Lol..you okes are funny...lucky i got a greay semse of humour..hahaha I see the 100mm dropper from giant is 350mm in length and the 125 is 395mm. So my question is, is the 100mm shorrer in terms of the part that goes into the seat tube and will this allow me to get it lower? Comedic comments welcomed...hahaha

slickandtyred Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 http://www.ebay.com/itm/TMARS-Adjustable-Seatpost-Seat-Post-27-2X400mm-/151721995556?hash=item235355ed24:g:2eMAAOSwYGFUthCH This is what I have, bought on eBay. Works OK.Thanks
AlanD Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 Manged to get it as low it can go with the remote working smoothly now. Had to try route the cable on the other side of the suspension bolt so it didn't bend much. Will ride it a while and see if it will work bit feels ok. Thanks for input. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 That must have been a fiddle....
AlanD Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 That must have been a fiddle....You have no idea of the pain it took...had utensils everywhere to help guide it but eventually managed to go through...worth it though
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 That's when one of these comes in handy
AlanD Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 That's when one of these comes in handyNow that would have saved me a lot of time. ????

Iwan Kemp Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 Part of the reason the Crap Brothers Joplin was such a disaster of note was the seat clamp / tilt design. 10 Years later and Pro copies it. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
