Aero reflex seat post size???
« on: December 04, 2011, 04:29 PM »
Can anyone on here once & for all tell me what size seat post will fit into an aero reflex frame without having to use a shim please? I've ordered a 22.2 renthal layback & I'm hoping this will not need a shim, please help as somebody on this site must know for sure.  :daumenhoch:

I have also bought a renthal seat post for mine, I've measured the seat post & I'm certain it's 22.2mm but it's going to need a shim & I'm not using a cut up coke can, a bit pi#@ed off actually >:(

Biagio assures me he has the correct size shim for an aero reflex, it's probably one of the original ones that came with reflexes. When it arrives I will try it with my renthal post & let you all know. Robbo, what's your problem with Biagio? I have ordered quality NOS parts off him with no problems, at the end of the day you pay your money & you take your choice, Biagio just always seems to have those NOS parts that nobody else has. If somebody really wants a particularly rare part, they are going to pay whatever it takes, a simple case of supply & demand, its as simple as that :daumenhoch: I think a can of worms has just been opened :LolLolLolLol:

Are there any updates on this one ? I need a shim for my Aero but i have no idea what size to try and source. I have a GT layback post that is also 22.2mm.

Regards

I bought a shim through vert-ego & it makes my renthal post fit snug inside my reflex, I think he charged me £4 ish, I'm pretty sure they are the shims that should come with the frame & forks but are being taken out & sold seperately, either way I'm happy. Email him as I'm sure he will have more knocking around.

I have spoke to Biagio. He has a few of these shims left and they are the Aero ones that were sold with the frames previously. If anyone needs to replace their coke can i suggest you get an order in pronto.
