Now, i'm sure you're all aware of the mammoth task i had getting the post out of my Trek donor frame... I now need to get a post for the rebuild.
I tried the post out of my MTB 27.2mm but it felt a bit tight, I measured the distance and it reads as 27mm.
Do I need a slimmer post and a shim, or should will it loosen off with a bit of wet and dry (thinking it might be a bit tight after removal of seized post)?
