Great for OCC Stingray

I was able to use a medium sized mountain bike stem on my OCC Stingray. Yes, OCC Stingray seatposts are 31.8. Before you buy a gasket, make sure you measure your seatpost. I have three different sized seat posts on my three bikes.

Pros
  • Hands-Free Operation
Cons
  • Small Parts

Seems to be working for now.

Used this adapter on an Eten KS dripper and it worked well on the first run. No slipping or hanging of the pipette due to the crunching of the tube. Mounted on an Ironhorse MKIII Expert and definitely made it easier to get from smooth trail to rock garden and back on flat ground without having to stop and adjust the seatpost.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Nothing here

Well processed quality part

Very well processed. I'm glad I chose the brand seal. I used this to fit a smaller diameter carbon seatpost into my titanium frame. Since it has a good powder coating I wasn't worried about it grabbing the titanium. A very light grease on the side of the frame just in case and some high friction carbon grease on the side of the seatpost and it worked great.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Negative impression

Check manufacturer's specs for seatpost diameter

I installed a Shockstop seatpost that required a bushing to match the diameter of the bike's rack tube. I measured as accurately as I could, but the first sleeve wasn't thick enough. A YouTube video advised me to check the manufacturer's information. It turns out my measurements were wrong by 0.2mm. It was the difference between the seatpost staying in place and sliding into the tube. When I finally got the right sleeve size, it worked great.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not bad

Does what it's supposed to do

What can you say about something as simple as a gasket? This 27.2/31.6 product from Cane Creek works exactly as it should. I use several different 27.2mm seatposts on my Trek Shift 4 with a 31.6mm seat tube. Most of them are from previous bikes I've had. All are held firmly by this seal without slipping. I have used many washers in the past, some work fine and others are too loose requiring the seat tube to be overtightened. This Cane Creek product is one of those that work. The black trim also

Pros
  • Solid construction
Cons
  • Empty

Excellent fit and finish; perfect for Cane Creek Thudbuster

ok that's a gasket. He comes and does what he has to do. I wouldn't normally take the time to review such a simple product, but the excellent workmanship deserves a mention. I have two sizes of Cane Creek Pads, 27.2-29.8 and 27.2-30.8. The reason is that I use my Cane Creek 3G Thudbuster Long Travel 27.2" seatpost on two of my bikes. Too bad the size 27.2 is not universal. The handling of the Cane Creek pads is impeccable. The black anodizing not only matches the Thudbuster but also has theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • reliability
