sounds good to me. i didn't think it would be at all clean but i guess it works for you guys. did you have a 30.0 seattube? which size seatpost did you guys shim up?? i took a look into macneil and they make pretty much everything but 30.0 lol. thanks for the helpn guys, i appreciate it
yea looked into ibeam as well but couldn't find a decent seat i liked for anything less than 140 bucks, lol. i think i'm going to take the advice and go with the shim. but thats only if i get some extra cash. thanks for the comments guys
normally i would respond with something like "yea it looked a lot like your ugly green bike" but the superlight is too f*ckin sexy to make fun of. bring that thing back in so i can drool some more! i'm thinking of taking one of the giant xtcones home with me sometime soon as a trailbike. gotta get some fitness going and not a chance in hell i'm wearing spandex so i'd need a trail machine, lol.
i had the same problem when i built my cowan, and i just bought a shim. you cant even tell its there and a lot cheaper than a whole new seatpost. ive had mine for 5 months and its great, saved a lot of money and a lot of hassle. hope that helps :-)
