so me being the posh, rich (and good looking) fine feathered chap that i am... my bike is a carrera fury...
yes, yes... i know, bow down to my amazing taste and obvious wealth 😆
i'm after an uppy downy seatpost and having measured my current seat post with digital thingies its 31.72 millimetres in diameter...
i'm going to go out on a limb and guess that's as near as dammit the 31.8mm uppy downy i'll be needing, and that the 0.08mm difference is needed so the seat clamp can be tightened?
looking at the reverb (i know, i know... they're failing all over the place, blowing seals and stuff.... but goddammit man they're shiny and other people on the trails must be made to know that i'm awesome) they come in 2 different lengths, on the fury, can i go for the longer one?
also, anybody got any advice on routing the cable for the remote when it arrives? would it just be a case of cable-tying it to the top-tube?
cheers for any help guys and gurls 🙂
sounds more like a 31.6 seat post. Does it not say on the seatpost somewhere
its a blank, plain black standard thing that came on the fury.. i haven't noticed any measurements on it hence the digital thingies 😕
damn that fury... damn it to hull.
would it not be too big to fit in a 31.6?
i'm confused
*is confused*
I'm guessing the measurement is not accurate... it'll be 31.6mm.
Are you riding yet? Do you want to trial my one?
what size is yours mr yeti? 🙂
i'm back on the bike, confidence is the issue holding me back... in the process of booking myself in to be jedied (yes its a new word) just need my MD to confirm the annual leave!
😀 i'd love to try your seat-post, are you expecting payment in wine? 😈
31.6mm... wine or cheap perfume... I don't really care.
I really want to go and play at Jedi's. I wonder if he likes cheap perfume too.
Obviously you would have checked the halford's website... right?

If it's the same as that it's a 31.8
Ahh... you'll need to get a shim then!
What a strange post size.
shim.. could this be one of those situations where a coke can can be mutilated for the testing?
yeah tis that beautiful bike you linked to... apart from my forks are the model from the year before so they're not blighted by an ugly dark sticker!
cheap perfume eh..... what about if i 'accidentally' spill one of the testers in boots on a rag, then liberally rub your body with the rag next time you visit for play timez? (i have wine too if that would help the situation/embarrassment)
Forget the wine... I want to remember this.
Ummm.. none too keen on the coke can plan though! 😀
text/email me and we'll organise something 🙂
sorry this has nothing to do with your post....buuuuut did you ever get round to uploading any video from the sexy swinley ride way back whenever it was now? apologies if i missed it....
