  1. Hello all,

    I know this may sound stupid, but is there any other way to find the
    size of my seatpost, without taking a measure? I checked the seatpost
    and I do not see any size information.

    TIA,

    George

    Wrap a piece of thin paper around it and make a mark along the edge in
    order to get the circumference. Make a precise measurement of the
    length of this line and divide by pi.

    Did you remove the seatpost and look below the minimum insertion line?
    That's where a lot of seatposts have the diameter stamped, and it tends to
    get rubbed away.

  4. It might be in the spec information for your bike. Do you have a
    catalog for this manufacturer for the appropriate year?

    Yes I did look for the size in manufacturers web-site with no success.
    I think I 'll just do what Dan suggested.

    Thank you all for the replies!!

    Have you CONTACTED the manufacturer? They'd probably be more than happy to
    help you out...

    George: There are a number of people from bike shops who hang out here, so
    if you tell us what model & year bike you have, somebody might know. For
    that matter, there might simply be somebody who owns one who knows.

    George-

    Thanks for the mail and for your interest in Cannondale products. All
    Cannondale frames have a 27.2mm seatpost diameter. I hope this information
    is helpful.
