Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.Ghost Ryder

I posted this in the MTB sub forum, but thought I should post it here too.
I just received a 2002 Kona Unit, & need to know what size the seat post diameter is?
I found that the 2009 is 27.2", do you think they're the same?
And would I be able to convert my unit to 29" wheels & tires?(From a 2009 Kona Unit)
Part II:
I just mangled the seat post that was in there, was pretty much seized, had to drill relief holes, & grease it up with penetrating grease.
I ended up having to heat it up a bit & use a pipe wrench to muscle it out.
It's said 27.2mm on the bar, I chopped it down to use a
stubby for mock up & tuning, & it fit really snug.
Do you think I'll need to try 27.0mm seat post since I'm going to need a new one?
It was a pink seat post that I wasn't planning on keeping BTW.:o
Thanks in advance.
