You should determine wether or not you need a layback seat post according to femur length and seat tube angle, then pick your stem length afterwards.

I've been wondering about this lately and whether I would benefit from a layback post. My Rourke has very steep angles and judging from photos I seem to sit quite far forward over the bottom bracket. Doesn't look quite right.

Suggestions for a cheap, black layback post I could try?

Cheers Indra, is nice but damn hilly! Hm, I thought as much. Maybe not such a good idea considering the roads around here are pretty terrible. In that case I'll probably end up getting this - http://www.wiggle.com.au/selle-italia-slr-lady-flow/ - and not stripping it. Just a shame they have to fucking put pink on everything!

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I need help. I've ridden a stripped SLR and really like it but can't manage any decent miles on it. It was fine for riding around London but I've moved to an area where my commute is a 40 mile round trip. I'm currently using a Fizik Arione, which is no more comfortable. I still get the same pains after 30 or so miles. I'm certain I need a saddle with a cut out, so with that being said, can either of these saddles be stripped?

Cheers Skully!

Finally got a decent photo of my Rourke

Agreed, needs DA or disco hubs

Check his Flickr.. The photos are up

Getting there. Narrower drops and proper road levers installed yesterday. Although does feel like I need a shorter stem again. It never ends..

Cool no worries!

Yes just found a Halo 19t. I'll be at St Pauls around 7 if you want to collect then

I think I also have a 18 or 19 cog around somewhere that you could have if Elra can't find something

Probs won't be smashing in drops this evening due to sore back/wrists from last weekend's tumble and two fresh tattoos

Will be there from 7ish with Lucy and Lewis for face painting :-D

Yes Lucy! And I could probably acquire a speaker from somewhere tomorrow..

Do you think this will be ready for Saturdays corpse paint ride?

Condor still stock the rl200s in all black which would suit xSvCxs build imo.

Been meaning to go to Condor anyway so will suss out the rl200s. Cheers B0N0R

Wiggle sell the Cane Creak model (the same shape as the old Condor/TektroRL200s).
Planet X are cheap for the Sram and TRP models when they're in stock.

Loads of places have the shimano levers – these are all the same shape, more suited for short reach on traditional bend bars.

Thanks.

Indra - the Tektro RL340s look like they have too much reach for me. I think they would look strange/too big on 36 width Piegas..

^^ This.
How would he even find that miro

Dude, I'm not a dude.

And thanks Indra and miro. I tried UTFS but nothing came up. Didn't know what specific model to search for...

Drop lever suggestions for compact bars, anyone?

^ want to trade for a BigxTop backpack? It's too long for my small stature

wow, you must play a lot of World of Warcraft.

I've never played WoW. Still, what's your point?
