    I have just upgraded my big airfoil wheel with a Nimbus 36" frame. For
    the moment I am using 152 mm cranks but later I want to shift to my 127
    mm cranks. Difference in height: 25 mm. But there is only 12 mm of
    saddle post left. How do I solve this problem?

    In a perfect world you would need to raise your saddle (152mm-127mm) or
    25mm. Do you have a fancy, expensive seatpost? Can you get a longer
    one?

    Man, I am sorry. It must be the heat. I was totally confused when
    writing that post. I don't have to lower the saddle when using shorter
    cranks – I will have to -raise- it. Thanks anyway, Harper. :o
