Does anyone know if you can change the lower section of the joplin in order to change the diameter? Ive got a 31.6mm but the new frame i want is a 30.9mm.

Ive sent an email to 2pure but was hoping someone on here might know.

Thanks

Never seen it done but a chap on Bikeradar did it... 2Pure sent him a used lower tube out of a warranty return/failed seatpost either for free or for peanuts.

Thanks, will have a search on bike radar.

Hopefully 2pure will get back to me with the same offer.

I've done it. 5 minute job. 2pure found me a tube as above.
If you don't have any luck, drop me a mail, I've gone the other way.

EDIT: Instructions are in the Crank Bros website under joplin servicing

vinnyeh: Thanks, that good to know it can be done. I had visions of more cost with having to buy a new dropper. Is yours a 3 or 4? mines a 4, do you still have the lower and would you be willing to sell it if 2pure dont come back to me with one?

Mines a 3 buzz, - but it may fit- 2pure will know. You're welcome to have it if it fits and 2pure can't help you out.
