  • New request...

    Need a 26.8mm seatpost, polished silver to match the theme. Have seen a cheap Pro one on SJS, but it might be too short (220mm), and is a tad out-of-theme: so far the build is all Italian, Condor and BLB parts!

  • I'm sure I've got a Shimano Pro 26.8 seat post in silver. may be a bit zig zaged at the bottom but Ill send some pics and have a measure. Are you sorted for forks now? I have some black ones if interested?

    Just seen the new page post so no worries!!!

  • Thanks. Happy to check the forks.

    I found that Pro post for £14.99 online, which translates to "if it doesn't work, at least it's a lot cheaper than the other stuff I've bought."

    Zigzags are fairly common. Do you have pics and a price?

  • Let me know if any use

  • Are you sorted? I too have a surplus Pro 26.8 post, good as new

  • Thanks for the pics. I still need the post. Can you dm or share your prices and locations please?

  • Tagging @HarmanMogul and @harv4130 re: the comment above. Thanks.

    New item added to my list of requirements! Turns out that while I can get away with my oversized cross-top levers for now, I'll need smaller-diameter ones if I plan on running a rear brake too (due to lack of clamping space on the oversized section).

  • Got some black Tektro cross tops, pretty sure they're 24mm, £5 collected from SE26 or EC1V

  • Nice one. EC1 should work. I'll DM.

  • At an LBS, I had the seat tube internal diameter measured by an insert (more reliable than a vernier calliper) turns out it's closer to was a 27/27.2mm after all, so no longer need a seatpost. I've also grabbed a fork off of another lufgusser, so thanks! It's threadless though, so guess what I need next...

    ...Yep, a threadless (1") headset. Anyone got one, preferably silver?

  • I'm back! Got my lovely headset, got my cross-tops. I'm now looking for a new set of bullhorns as the current ones are around 35cm c2c (https://www.bricklanebikes.co.uk/blb-eastwood-os-bar-black). Thinking of something like the Deda Dabar.

    Also, a longer stem would serve me well. Any silver, ahead, oversized stems at least 110mm about?

  • Bullhorns no longer needed. Grabbed an eBay bargain for the Cinelli/Mash ones. Aesthetically I don't think they'll look as good, but I absolutely love flat-tops for comfort.

  • Not silver but I have a boardman stem 110 you can have for the price of postage to get you going

  • Thanks. I'll bear that in mind. Will hold out for silver to keep the scheme consistent for now. =)

    I found some nice 26mm ones, but that would warrant different bars.
