Tool Fool - 27.2 seatpost solution

[lconley]

Cyclus holder and handle and 27.2 seat tube reamer (very sharp). For when you really, really want to put that 27.2 lugged seatpost in your 26.8 or 27.0 frame. This will be first put to work on my 27.0 Guv'nor and then my 27.0 Bombadil (already honed, but still tight). Less than $100, shipped from Germany. This is my birthday present to myself for my 66th Birthday.

Thanks Laing. 

I'm glad to know about this tool.

I'm wondering about the pros and cons of changing a 26.8 or perhaps 26.6 which most of my bike are to a 27.2.

Well, I can think of several pros...

I just wouldn't want to mess the seat tube up if there are cons.

Laing, 

Happy birthday!   :) 

I'd love to see a report on how you found the process once you've done it. easy to difficult, quality of result, etc. 

Thanks!
