    Anyone got any ideas on a 30.0 seatpost? Looking for one for my Ironhorse 7 point but cant seem to find many!? There is an orange one on Je James for a tenner but thats about it. What else could I do, what size can I go with a shim? Never tried that before so no ideas on what size I would need. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

    FSA or Easten are pretty much your best bet. Or Thomson of course.

    i got a Thompson from CRC for my G spot, bit of stupid size in my opinion can’t get a decent “up and downer” for it

    My Iron Horse came with one of those Race Face posts. Creak like a creaky thing, so replaced it with an FSA.

    would it fit in mine, or would I need shims? If so what size shim would I need? Might help if I ask how much? What model and what condition?

    I’ve got a 30.0-27.2 shim if you want it?

    I ran a Thomson 30.0 in the end, just sold it with the frame.

    Advise Thomson, Coves in particular often come with RaceFace 30.0 seatposts and they all appear to creak (although I don’t believe the diameter has any effect!!!). We’ve sold Thomson and it’s cured it every time. Shimming has been fine for me in the past but I would always buy the right size if you can.

    ive got a shim in my p7 (29.8 to 27.2), benn using it for years, its fine.
    thomson have a good rep, although i aint used one.
    USE are good, easton are good and reasonably priced.
    USE sell shims too, seperately if you want one, not expensive.
