Hi

Looking for a seat post cradle for a PRC carbon seat post. The radius is 22mm and clamp width is 45mm. I am certain any one will work with similar dimensions. Perhaps off an old broken seat post or just one lying around. Its the bottom part of the seat clamp.

let me know

thanks

Shimano pre load cap part number Y1P417000. Any bike shop should be able to order it.

Hi guys! I have two forks. Both stuck on Lockout. One 26er, one 29er. I don't want to just throw it away. Free to collect. Maybe a build for someone that needs a bike to get from point A to B?
