  • Crisis averted. The split in the tube was narrower at the top, I'd just never checked it. I gently opened it with a screwdriver and once the post got past the top tough bit, it went in fine. It's 31.6 and the seller was just a numpty. I'm just glad it hasn't cracked.
    This opens up a lot of possibilities now so I'm happy. I can finally sit on it haha

    Thank fuck for that, that all I can think of.

    Give it a good clean, look inside the seat tube etc. for any telltale sign, for all I know the seller must have been riding this like that for too long and create stress.
