Rich Retrobike Rider BoTM Winner May 6, 2013 #12 Thanks Mike, I know, I'm mad, funnily enough, the guys at Kia Ora sheet metal who repaired my frame, are hopefully doing the seatpost extension I'll look into that glue you recommended, thanks for the heads up Rich

Rich Retrobike Rider BoTM Winner May 17, 2013 #13 Okay, here it is, very pleased with how it turned out, pretty simple machining job, same diameter internal and follows the same exterior diameter, it's heavy but pretty happy it'll never break, finally got my Mavic seatpost sorted Attachments image.jpg 35.4 KB · Views: 484 image.jpg 35.6 KB · Views: 484
