Your dentist will thank you for having your stem like that

well, here it is, what kind of seat post would it need or is it a porpoise built one?

Oh no! did I incorrectly aligned the stem?

expander type, AFAIK.

Just looks like it'd hurt in a bump with it sticking up like that rather than the bend below the bars.

That will have a proprietary seatpost. Good luck finding a replacement if the frame comes without.

might need an expanding bolt that slots inside of it, like the affinity kissena?

Oh that's ok, I got a beard.

Built in airbag

well, thanks folks!
Jah willing, it won't need a proprietary post an i can get away with an expanding one, thinking deep rims and drops, and skidmarks

I like very much where this is going!

That's really cool Ed, maybe I'll put the airwings back on. Good fun building parts bin LoPros.

i looked at planet x, they haz this

pretty similar geo

maybe these planet x do will fit, and if i ask nice they may have a clamp, is it possible seat tube would be same /similar diameter?

maybe these planet x do will fit

Most unlikely, no two makers have ever knowingly used the same aero seat post.

no two makers have ever knowingly used the same aero seat post.

Made in Taiwan, the same design is probably used for the seatpost whether they intentionally designed it as such or not.

Nice, nothing beats a bit of airbrush for a hand made touch :)

Now be careful with that seatpost once you find one eh? ;)

Put a 27.2 seatpost in and see how it sit on the front, that'll give you an indication of whether it need an expander (very likely) or an aero post.

columbus air tubing seatpost fabrication ?

almost definitely needs an expander

On Sunday there is a 75k Strade Bianche sportive north of Copenhagen - fitted 28c Gatorsskins with OS tubes for better puncture resistance and a longer stem for road duties.

Looks great

Thanks

Dilemma.. Want to run drops on the NJS but can't seem to find a compatible bar/stem combo. Want to keep the Jag stem but they only come in 25.4 and compact bars are 26. would just go for a pearl but can't slam it and don't want to cut it. Inb4 inverse shim, halp pls!

Does it have to be NJS? If not get something cheap. Or just get the Pearl cut.
