  • Have we seen the Bikeradar thread about cracking Ultimate CF SLX seat tubes? About 10 owners have said their's have had same issue possibly caused by the seatposts.

    This was after one ride

    Hmmm, mine was an issue with the aeroroad and a bolt shearing. Again around the seatpost area though, and having had an engineer look at it, he believes the design itself is pretty flawed. The seatpost gives a large amount of mechanical advantage and therefore huge amounts of stress on the bolts holding. One for MDCC tester i suspect.
