@CarlP im pretty sure I have a longer 1" seat post knocking around somewhere that you are welcome to , but it will be sat/sun before I have a mooch in the shed.

Thanks very much, that would be great, no rush.

Which is?

Tour de France of course!

@CarlP you could use the one I have, just remove the clamp from under your saddle and it would then clamp on to this seatpost by the saddle rails

Tour de France of course!

Hmm, yeah right.

But...I discovered just yesterday from my neighbour that the original owner rode the BHF London to Brighton on it about 15 years ago when he found out he had a heart condition.

So I am seriously considering the matter of doing that on this bike next year.

Thanks, I’ll pass on it but I appreciate the offer.

Just thought I'd mention that yesterday I was reading your post on my mobile device, and couldn't see the photos clearly, I actually want a chrome seat post for the bike yours looks like it's black. Many thanks for going to the trouble of digging it out though.
