Dear all, I have a problem with the Streampost of my BMC SL01 ULTEGRA model 2011: it slips down. I wrote to BMC and they suggested me to go to Evans (the guys in Evans even don't know how to unlock the streampost) and "First of all, the basic adjustment must be correct in order to have the right clamping tension. Also carbon paste can be used to avoid slipping down. This should definitely solve the problem."
The streampost is not the original one that came with the bike, but the longer version. I have a 51 frame but it resulted small for me (always thanks to my ignorance in the road bikes field at the moment of buying it and to the "expert" help of Evans). I still have the original streampost and if I will not be able to fix my problem I will need to sell the bike (or frame).
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks
