Where to buy a crooked seatpost... any suggestions?

Posted on
  • Hey all, grateful for any suggestions,

    I am finding that my frame, whilst the right height, is not long enough horizontally for me... Does anyone know of any good (or if they exist) crooked seatposts?

    I guess I am looking for something that goes up and then back (away from the handlebars) a bit before you fix the seat to it....

    Hmmm

    Bump

  • Thompson make them.
    Or you may find sold NOS 70's BMX seatpost and be able to shim them out.

  • Search for "layback" seatposts on the bay

  • There was a crooked man,
    And he walked a crooked mile,
    He found a crooked seatpost
    Upon a crooked stile;
    He bought a crooked cat,
    Which caught a crooked mouse,
    And they all lived together
    In a crooked little house.

  • Or go to chain reaction cycles and search "thompson elite layback" and buy a new one for £60

  • Can I have another question now please or there's a very real danger that I may have to do some work!

  • Lots of regular seatpost come with a set back clamp which give about an extra inch, which is about the same as a thompson.
    I run a thompson because there amazin!
