Ramjin,
First of all, you have a beautiful bike. An inspiration for my current build. I am currently building up my Helix OS.
I currently have the titanium Lynskey zero setback seatback seatpost (31.6mm diameter and 300mm length).
However, after my bikefitting session, the bikefitter recommended a 25mm seatback seatpost. So, I decided to look for a 25mm setback seatpost in the event that my bike feels too cramped.
To confirm what I will need, I looked at the Lynskey website for the Helix OS and found out that the Helix OS would need a 27.2mm diameter seatpost! I noticed that you are using TC Ti 31.6mm diameter seatpost.
Am I missing something?
What seatpost diameter should I use?
With Regards,
Mark
Btw, does the finish of the TC Ti seatpost match the bright-brushed Ti finish of your Helix? Also, I am assuming you are using the Vittoria Open Pave EVO 24mm clincher tires - any clearance issues?
