Seatpost question
I am looking for a seatpost for the Kestrel Evoke framset that Bikesdirect is offering. My question is, do I go with a 32.4 (not many choices) or a 31.6 with a shim(many choices)? Also looking to stay under $100 either way, and would be going with a 56 cm frame set. Currently ride a 58 cm 2300.
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.

I don't think you should use a shim. However... you don't know yet how much setback you want (if any). So using the post you have with a shim might give you an idea of what you need.
