My size too, and I called first dibs already
He tends to dismiss it as "early work," but he doesn't have a spare on hand (not that he'd ride, anyway). I keep telling him he needs to N+1 his rider fleet, but he wants to build it with the same True Temper S3 tubeset as this one - no longer in production and not easy to get.

Yes, it's a copy of an existing bike fitting tool modified so we could get the saddle in the same spot after getting the post out.
Unfortunately, the two-clamp design of the replacement Deda post meant we couldn't get it as far back as with the Easton single-clamp. We had to leave it a quarter inch further forward.
