seatpost diameter

I've got a Canyon 29er and the current seatpost has diameter of 30.9. My question is, as this is so close to 31.6mm is a seatpost of 31.6mm going to fit? I'm asking as I have to buy a new one with a setback and I'm looking for something cheap and most of the seatposts are 31.6mm, actually I haven't found any 30.9mm yet.

No, correct size or smaller with shim.

Alright, thanks for quick response! looks like Thompson are making 30.9mm seatposts so I will keep an eye on them

30.9 isn't as common but is hardly rare.....http://uk.search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt= ... ram=&rd=r2

Check superstar components for a seatpost with layback in 30.9. I just ordered an inline one from them for about 20 quid, and everything I have had off them has been great quality.

30.9 is the 3rd most common size, look harder!

Have got three of Superstar's posts they might not be the lightest but they're well made:

if you want to damage your frame, by all means fit the larger post, you may need a big hammer. :shock:

ok, 0.5 mm doesn't seem like much but I'd be sruprised if you could even get it to go in.

plenty of 30.9 mm posts out there.
