Seat Post Problem Pinned

Posted Monday, August 22, 2005, at 10:51AM by Eric Richardson

Turns out yesterday's slipping seat post was the result of a seat binder clamp that just wasn't tightening up enough to put good pressure to keep the post in place. I had the original binder clamp as well, so for now I've just put that on. It's not quick-release, so I'm not particularly worried about it getting stolen between now and when I can take it into the shop tomorrow. I'm sure there are bike thieves that carry 4mm hex wrenches with them, but it looks a little more suspicious to start pulling out tools just to steal a seat.
