Max Seat Height on a 51cm P2C?	Can't Post

Have a 51cm Soloist team and the stock seatpost that came with it was too small for me. Does the P2C have a one size fits all seatpost or are there different sizes similar to how there are multiple sizes for the Soloist team and P2SL? Any ideas on the max seatheight for a 51cm P2C?

hi

the 51 comes with a shorter post than the larger sizes,

see if you can trade for the longer one.........you get about 2.00 extra inches

Think 770mm from bb to point of saddle that intersects with midline of seatpost angle is doable with the longer of the 2 (or is it 3?) posts?

Hi,

I "Believe" so, but on this one I would appeal to a higher power........

paging "Cyclenutz".

I think it would be close and somewhat saddle dependent

I don't have length measurements for the IAA post so I can't give you a definite answer - perhaps as Cervelo CS or ring a store and ask them to measure how high the saddle can go. I can say that my saddle is 24cm above the frame and there is a little bit of room to go further up and still have adequate insertion. I have seen a P3C with saddle 29cm above the frame but that was inadequate insertion IMO (and I suspect also the opinion of Cervelo warranty if it came to that).
