Seatpost Seat
i bought a gusset complex seat and the seatpost is too thick wat can i do?
Not up on modern cycle seats but I always understood that the seat post was in dependant of the saddle. usually connected with some kind of clamp that would allow for back and forth adjustment of the saddle, however they did come in different sizes dependant on the size of tubing used to build the frame
I would suggest one of the following
1. Return to place of purchase and tell them the problem
2. Go to a reputable cycle store and ask for advice
Which ever you choose, take the old seat post with you to compare size
Good luck
