HQ Fibre products no-longer doing cycle repairs, any other local suggestions for carbon shenanigans. Have a seat post wedge/extension conundrum.

I do repairs. Based in Colchester. Several pro level customers. I suspect that if it involves fabricating a seatpost it may well cost a fair bit. I have extended seatposts. I would need more to go on really/pictures etc to be able to give a rough quote. Storck have always been pretty helpful when i've contacted them for logos/uci decals etc so you never know.. Regards

Thanks, I appreciate the offer of help. I only received the frame yesterday and all my initial plans went out the window as soon as I saw it. I think your instincts are right a new seat post would probably be easiest. I'll post when I've got pics and dimensions. Will be over in current projects if you'd like the 'publicity'. (That's some astute forum cross-referencing there too, it is indeed for a Storck)

Weird. Just wanted to start talking seat posts, costs etc. Happy to chat here if you are or could you maybe send me a PM and see if that works.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
