Thud buster seat post

[slowpoke]

casspir, just get another saddle for the old seatpost, mark both carefully and swap it out accordingly when you use the bike on the road... i popped my arione onto my old seat post to do argus on my mtb cos i knew the thudbuster would drain me on the tar

Congratulations.... did you get the Crudcatcher as well..... if not get it as dust mud etc may hurt the swivel bearings.

[casspir]

Slowpoke,  done it already.  Arione on old fixed seat post and Gobi on Thudbuster. 

Big H, crud catcher fitted.  Need to ask SWAMBO to do some needlework.  I don't use a QR on the saddle post clamp and need to change the catcher so that it can be removed without removing the seat post. 

Regards,

No need to remove seat post.... I am sure!!!!!! Did you fit it correctly or did the design change??????

[garthzga]

What do these things costs?

[casspir]

Big H, seems to be a design change.  Has a hole for the seatpost and smallish "haak en steek" opening. 

garthzga, have a look at www.thudbuster.com

casspir,

 

 

only a pleasure to recommend something that I simply will not get rid of. Admittedly mine is a little old and I have little use for it, I'm hanging on to it for when I get a Hardtail for spare bike /commute duties.

 

Remember the preload can be set as well by tightening the nuts holding the elastomer stack together. Set up takesa bit of time but not a great deallonger than any other post.

 

First get the preload right, then position the saddle setback from the bb and saddle height. Sorted!
