I have a Problem...please help

Rita

Hi all,

I built this bike over the last 5 months but I'm having a wee/big problem.

Firstly I'll show you the bike



Right here is the problem, the saddle is to low for me.

I have the saddle at its highest height but it still about 3 to 5cm to low:(

Can you get an extension for this or am I fooked ???????????

Thanks

Shane

Looks like integrated seatpost so I'd say you're buggered for raising it, but I don't know much about them beyond that they have to be cut to size. Did you buy the frame new?

Rita

Thanks for the reply,

No I bought the frame second hand........I wonder could you get a longer seat clamp and use spacer to raise the seat.

longer cranks?

Rita

I have 175mm on the frame at the minute.....that was the reason I fitted them....cheers

I reckon that you're knackered. Nice looking bike though, should sell for a few quid!

But hang on...I think it might be worth checking out whether an extra high ISP clamp would be compatible with your bike. A quick google revealed this site -
