    Need a seat tube reamed out from 26.8-27.0-ish* to a reliable 27.2.

    Is this something a frame builder can do /or/ is it LBS work? Any recommendations? The frame is in south west London. Thanks.

    *it’s a Raleigh Dynatech cro-mo rear triangle. I can’t work out what the actual seatpost diameter is meant to be. 26.4 (what I was told it should be) is way too narrow, 27.2 could work with a mallet and a lot of grease.

  • I’d take it to sbc cycles / seabass / your lbs of choice. If they can’t do it then next choice is finding a machinist shop or something.

    Dynatech as in the bonded lugged frameset? What are the 3 main tubes made out of?

  • Thanks... emailed Clever Mike’s but no reply. I wondered if enquiries like that got filed under “HELL NO!” because of liability.
    It’s the Diablo stx, so down tube and top tube are Ti, the rear triangle is steel.
    Cheers!
