Carbon Seatpost

[citybabe]

Can you help me please guys
I'm looking for a 31.6mm x 300mm carbon seat post for my road bike. Does anybody know a good one please.
I have an ordinary alu 350mm on my bike at the mo but it could do with being probably just a tad shorter as I only just scrape 5'2
Thanks

You can just take a hacksaw to your existing post if it's too long. As for which carbon post, this all depends upon what you're willing to pay. You can spend £20~£200. Are you sure it's 30.6? This is a commen seat clamp size but it's not a very common seat post size.

My Bianchi has a 31.6mm seat post.

Check around and look on eBay, you can pick up some good brands for next to nothing.

Just had a custom bike made up with an FSA K Force Light and its pretty good. More comfortable than alu. Expensive but worth it!

In carbon the extra 50mm will weigh practically nothing (50g ish) so I wouldn't worry about the length.

The 31.6 is a common size on stiff bikes -as advised above I'd look on flea bay.

I could have sworn Citybabe originally asked for a 30.6 seatpost?
