    Moxey seatpost, collapsed elastomer, how big is the hole?

    Ok 40+ miles in the South Downs Way was a lot to ask of a 10+ year old seat post. Basically the hole in the elastomer has all but closed up. Back in the day I recall being told that putting a small length of the correct diameter plastic tube in there would give the post a new lease of life...
