  1. Hello Folks,

    Does anybody here happen to have the geometry numbers and/or chart for the Voodoo D-Jab Ti frames? I
    can't seem to find any from google and am particularly interested with the seat post diameter size.

    Anybody here owns one and willing to pull the seat post out to check the numbers if you don't know
    it right off hand.

    Any help or leads would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance, Ganz

    I can give you the geometry numbers if you can give me the frame size. Measure from the center of
    the BB, the top of the seat tube, and that's your frame size.

    Nowhere in the catalog is any info on seat post size. I can e-mail someone I know with one, so it'll
    take a few days.

    Well there ya go. Thanks.

  5. Thanks Miles,

    But mine does NOT seem to be correct. I tried a 27.0mm post in there and it was too small. The front
    derailleur clamp size is 31.8 (1 1/4) if that helps. Although 26.8mm seems to be common with steel
    frames, it is definitely not with the D-Jab Ti.

    Miles, is your 26.8 Syncros mounted on a D-Jab frame?

    Thanks, Ganz

    It sounds as though you need a 31.6 or a 30.9. Take a caliper to the *inside* of the tube for an
    exact measurement.

    FWIW, my bike has a 31.8 FD clamp, and uses a 31.6 seatpost - and the frame is made of Al (different
    tube thickness issues with different materials, dontcha know.

    My friend just informed me that it's a 27.4 post that they are using. They were using a 27.2,
    shimmed up, but found that Thomson made a 27.4. I would do as Jonesy suggested though, and measure
    with some dial calipers.

    26.8mm was the size mine came in. Yes, it is a more common size for steel, but my D-jab was sized
    for it perfectly.

    Sadly, I no longer have the bike (but I do still have the post!).

    I'm wondering now if Voodoo made a model year change with the tube set, or possibly changed as the
    frame size increased. The D-Jab my friend rides is the largest model (21"😉 Voodoo made. As far as
    steel frames go, my Deluxe uses a 29.4 post, which does not leave me many options, as far as trying
    different brands. Lucky thing for me, Thomson makes a 29.4.

    I hear ya. The only thing I have left from my Wanga is the chain, and saddle.

    I'd probably still be riding that Voodoo if it were the next size bigger. The longer I had it, the
    more obvious it became that 18.5" just wasn't the right size- I needed a 19.5" frame.

    19.5" was the size of mine, and was very happy with it, with one exception. The cockpit just a bit
    too short for me. The effective TT length was about
    20.5". My new ride is right at 24", and all the other dimensions are real close to what the Wanga
    was, with the exception of the HT, and ST angles. I think I'm going to be real happy with it.

    Geometry for the Joe Murray designed hard tails didn't change from year to year or from model to
    model. That being said, the builders changes from year to year. Later models were produced in the US
    (High Altitude and others), early models were produced overseas (A-Pro and Toyo). Seat tube and post
    diameters changed with production facilities.

    Hmmm... I thought that 23.5" was the ETT length on my 18.5"... I am running a 24 1/8" TT now on my
    custom bike, and I love it. I could never go back to a short TT.

  14. Hey Fellas,

    As it turned out, my lbs guy said it's 27.2mm post measurement. Thanks to all you guys who helped
    out trying to figure this out. Now I'm in the market for another 27.2mm carbon post. 🙂
