FAQ
Can I use a shim to adapt to a non-round or "aero" seatpost?
Unfortunately, the seatpost shim is only designed to adapt our 27.2mm round seatpost to other larger round seatpost diameters (for example, 31.6mm or 30.9mm). If your seatpost is oval or "aero" shaped, then both of our seatposts are not compatible with your bicycle.My bike has a 25.4mm seatpost. Do you have a shim for that size?
The short answer is no. Both of our seatposts are only available in 27.2mm diameter. Since that is larger than 25.4mm, it is not possible to use a shim to adapt the seatpost to your frame.To read more Frequently Asked Questions, click here.

Different bikes sometimes have different seatpost diameters. The ShockStop Seatpost and Dual-Position Seatpost are both 27.2mm in diameter, so if your bike's seatpost is larger, you'll need a shim to adapt our seatpost to your bike's frame. Don't worry though, the shims are super-lightweight and essentially invisible once installed.
Not sure what size seatpost you have currently? There are a couple different ways to find out.
• Most seatposts have the diameter printed somewhere near the bottom of the post. You'll need to remove the seatpost from the bike frame (mark your existing seatpost height with a bit of tape before you remove it so you can replace it easily), and look for a number like 27.2, 30.9, or 31.6 (etc.). That is the diameter of the post.• If you know the make, model, and year of your bike, you may be able to look up the seatpost diameter online. Feel free to shoot us an email at info@redshiftsports.com - we'll see if we can help out.
• Ask your local bike shop - they'll be able to accurately measure your bike's seatpost.
Non-compatible posts: Unfortunately, if your bike's seatpost is smaller than 27.2mm (for example, the 25.4mm posts found on some recent model Cannondale Synapses) our seatpost is currently not compatible with your bike. Likewise, if you have a bike with an aero/oval/non-round seatpost, or if your bike has an integrated seatmast, the seatpost is also not compatible.
