Topic starter
 

can you buy a 30.9 - 31.6 anywhere that i would get it this week?

fairly sure iv decided on a reverb post, but would like the option to use it on both bikes, mostly on the 30.9 marin but would occasionally like it on the c456 31.6 for the like of trail centre rides when its handy to have the option to change position.

0.7mm is not much material!

I've never understood the "any bike mechanic will have sopme in his drawer" thing. Fair enough for parts that say only come with bikes, but for stuff that's available to buy?

From what I've seen there are things that are never normally on the shelves etc that just end up in there as used spares etc.

Wrap the metal from a beer can around it, three layers should do it.
