Cotic don't really say, but a 31.6 post and a 34.9 fromt mech woul d say 34.9 to me

http://www.cotic.co.uk/product/hemlock

[i]

Seatpost diameter: 31.6mm (you'll probably need a 400mm, see our Bontrager deals below)

Front Mech: 34.9mm (conventional high clamp, bottom pull)

Bottom Bracket width: 73mm threaded

Headset: 1.5" Standard (Stock geometry is based around an internal 1 1/8" steerer headset. See the Hope options below)

Shock: 200mm eye-to-eye x 57mm stroke, 8mm fittings

[/i]

My Hope 34.9mm seemed very tight on mine (maybe because it's the painted version?) so I had a dig around in the spares box, found a 36.0mm one and used that

I should have stayed out of this as I'm probably just confusing the issue. If yours is the anodised version, I'd go with 34.9. As said, mine was painted which is probably the reason it was so tight when using a 34.9.

Mine is white painted, no bother with 34.9. Snug but not troublesome.

Oh, that's screwed up that theory. Maybe it was the Hope clamp ๐Ÿ˜•

:edit: NW - Are you sorted for a 150mm rocker now?

34.9 Hope on mine. Anodized small it was a fine fit, painted white medium it took some persuading. Works fine on either though.

If there's a set of 150mm rockers for the Mk2 going I might be interested ....
