Anyone else have a RockLobster team tig 853?
I’ve always used a shimmed up ti seatpost that unsurprisingly always slipped. Have now replaced it with a 27.2 post which happily slides in a couple of inches then gets incredibly tight.
I’ve tried wrapping some wet ‘n dry paper round the narrower post to clean the seat tube internally and then lubing the 27.2 post but nothing much has improved.
Now wondering if it maybe takes a 27.0 seatpost?
