After visiting my LBS and getting properly sized for my bike, it's come to my attention my once perfect bike is now not the corret size, hense causing some of my recent knee pain [img]cyclingforums.com.aufrown.gifOpen ↗[/img]

Apparently I need a seat post offering more setback/layback - 35-40mm to be exact. This might seem like an easy task but my bike is classic cromoly 59cm OLMO - 26.4 seatpost [img]cyclingforums.com.auconfused.gifOpen ↗[/img]

Not sure really what to do, I've looked online but am having no luck? Does anyone have any suggestions?

A quick google found this,

Thanks but correct diameter, no options of 35-40mm setback/layback 🙂

? Its a sleve so you can buy a 25.4, Pretty much your only option cause that 26.4 is an oddball

Gotchya, thanks but how does this help with the setback? I cant find a 25.4 on this website with 35-40mm setback/layback?

Custom build but it will be expensive

Success! Thanks to everyone's advice offerred, much appreciated.

After spending $210 (AUS) I've managed to gain the 35mm setback I was looking for.

I bought a new Thomson alloy 26.4 seatpost with roughly 20mm set back - probably 4mm more than my previous and lighter [img]cycling.net.ausmile.gifOpen ↗[/img] and a new specialzed alias 143 saddle with much longer rails which has provided the remaining 15mm.

Now if only the weather would hold up for Sundays ride [img]cycling.net.aurolleyes.gifOpen ↗[/img]
