@sparky,jambon,spotter those frames and builds are stunners
@spotter I was tempted to buy that leader frame myself but got one of the unbranded riva/edwardes aluminium frames instead. I prefer the deaignnofnthe leader but don't think there's much between them #hopesanddreams
I've been unable to work on this bike for a while and now the seatpost is giving me hassle
I can't figure out whether the seat tube region above the top tube has been bent out o line with the region below it or whether the top has been stretched larger. 27.2 fits the top but doesn't get anywhere down into it. With 27.0 I have one seatpost that did fit and one that doesn't get down into it, both the same manuf and model. With the 27.0, when the clamp is tightened the slit seems to be pinched at the bottom. Odd. I'm going to try to file the diameter down on the seatpost
Anyone else had this problem?
