Hi, I’ve had this for some time now and I bought it with the seat collar damaged. For the last 10 years I haven’t had an issue with the post slipping after cramming down some old aluminum cans to help fix it. But recently it’s not creating any tensions and seat keeps dropping down and spinning...

Nice, do you know what size the frame is in inches? Just gona measure up to my current frame

Sorry is the head set 1 1/8? Thanks :)
