[RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

One really nice feature that I admire on Rivendell frames is that the "pinch" bolt for the Seat post is just a normal bolt and nut. I think I would ensure that the cable hanger is not limiting how tightly the pinch bolt is influencing the seat post. If the hanger is in conflict, I would take my

Hi Everyone, Thank you for all your suggestions. My 27.2 Nitto S83 seatpost is snug enough in the seat tube to stay put at a given height if there is only a very, very thin film of grease, so I suppose the friction paste might work. How clean does the seat tube need to be of grease for t

Re: [RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

John: Sorry for jumping into this a bit late, but I’ll just add that the mechanics I have spoken to about slipping seatposts would *never* recommend friction paste. If your post is slipping, there is something going on that shouldn’t be “fixed” with friction paste. That’s like putting a band-ai

Re: [RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

John, I think what you laid out in your initial post are the the permanent solutions. To confirm - your seatpost fits correctly and wouldn't slip if the brake hanger were not there, correct? The issue then is that the brake hanger is interfering with securing the seatpost fully. If so, filing th

[RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

First of all, leaving off the rear brake bridges for bikes that have canti studs is just plain stupid dumb dumb dumb. Before you go about anything John you gotta know if the post stays put without the hanger. If the post still slips you have either an irregularity in the seatpost or f

Re: [RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

I believe one **possible source** of this issue **IS** the Nitto cable hanger itself -- On many Riv frames it fits "just fine" between the ears of the seatlug -- but, on some, when you tighten down the post -- it actually catches between the ears and cams the tube back open just enough to cause th

Re: [RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

Follow-on thought question : Does/did Riv use the same seat-lug (the "basic hardware/bolt-nut") - for both 27.2 **and** 26.8 seatpost-sized frames? Perhaps that's the key to the problem, that the Nitto hanger is incompatible on 26.8 frames using this lug? =- Joe On 2/19/20, Joe Bunik wrote: > I

Re: [RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

Same hardware, but the OP's bike is a Hunqapillar with a 27.2 post. I think he just got unlucky with the dimensions of the binder ears and Nitto hanger on this one, something needs to be filed down or replaced in there. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Grou

Re: [RBW] Re: Advice Needed: Best Remedy for a Slipping Hunqapillar Seatpost

Hi, Yes, the outer edge of the long Nitto rear hanger nearly reaches my 27.2mm seatpost within the seat tube slot no matter what angle it hangs from the M6 bolt. It wouldn't be able to cam the slot in the seat tube open because it is already in the slot. I checked the seat tube

Getting a longer binder bolt and using a Mafac hanger might be another solution as it bolts to the outside rather than into the slot. Like this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/291709320587. Or get a longer bold that sticks our a little and bolt the Nitto hanger to the side. This will put the brak
