Calling P3C owners!
a) I'm having trouble with the seatpost slipping. With assembly paste and a torque wrench, it needs 6.5Nm whereas 4Nm is specified. And that's just on the turbo, no pedalling.
It's a brand new frame: does the post or tube need roughening-up?
b) Using a TriRig Omega X with a no-hanger backplate. I have a Tektro steerer mounted hanger, but that needs a 10mm spacer under it to clear the nose on a 54cm frame.
What are you using? Does anyone know of hangers with more forward extension (the Tektro has 38mm)?
TIA
