The inside diameter of my seat post hole measures 28 mm. The closest sizes I see on this product are 27.2 and 29.2. Should I go larger or smaller?

In my opinion you need to make sure you get the exact size you need, I don't know what you used to measure but you should try to look up your bike on a sight such as bike-pedia that will give you the exact sizes and stats. for your bike. That being said 27.2 is one of if not the most used seat post sizes along with 25.4 so that might be what you need, but seat post sizes are in increments of 2mm and if you do not buy the correct size it is more trouble than taking the time to get it exact.

Don't guess what size you need. Worst case, you could destroy your frame by trying to insert a post that is 1 mm too large. Take out the old post (hopefully you have it.) Most seatpost shave the size stamped on them. If the numbers are hard to read, try shining a flashlight on from the side. If your post is not marked for size, use a vernier caliper to measure the size of the post, not the interior of the frame seat tube. This is an inexpensive tool that is helpful for many bicycle applications. I have one in my bike tool box.

27.2. There is expected to be a slight amount of play so that the post can slide in and out, but one mm too large will never fit. Note: this post doesn't have a seatpost collar, you have to buy that separately.

Not sure what your height has to do with it. I'd say it's more the diameter of the posterior. The hole might actually be smaller than a normal seat -- I measure it at 11.5 x 7.5".

This is a standard size toilet seat. They measure them from the outside, and not the inside hole. I have one and it is as gorgeous and sturdy as the day it came last year!

It fits fine on my seat stay. The diameter of mine is 26.8mm and it stays in place.

I'm also 5'9" and wear a 31-32" in seam...I bought the 29" with 17" seat post and it fits me beyond perfectly...I would highly recommend spending some money on a new seat and pedals...

maybe because the seat post will not fully retract? look at the frame style. at its lowest point my saddle is several inches above the frame. might put normal sizing out.....I bought mine from a shop so tested it in person

I just don't know. I bet though if you reach out to the manufacturer, maybe they can detail your issue with some pics you provide? I don't recall ever needing extra for my traditional seat post, but just email them.

nickels55, Thank you for your interest in Silverback! The recommended size for your hole is 36" deep and a 16"-20" diameter. However, the goal also requires a 18" minimum rear clearance for the actuator. For the best understanding of the size and dimensions, please view the product manual, provided below: http://www.escaladesports.com/manual/silverback/B5402W-B5402F_2L719800.pdfHope this helps!

I've never bought a saddle that wouldn't fit a seat post but I'm not sure about this one and your specific post. Your bike shop should be able to tell you or contact the manufacturer. Sorry I'm not much help!

I checked the diameter of both the units I bought and it looks as if 1" is the max diameter of the post clamp.This would not fit my seat post but the rear frame wheel support. Hope this helps... Please note that the most recent one purchased only had the large size clamp and came with two dead batteries. Perhaps this was a customer return.

I am a size 36 and I ordered a large which is conforable. I would go with the next size larger If it is a little big it will still be alright on the seat.

it is 1/2" inside diameter before heat is applied. The post diameter is determined by how many wires you have running through it. It will shrink to a tight fit around what have in it to about half its original size.

It should fit. Just order the 31.6 mm. Should work with the saddle.It is very nice by the way.

The seatpost size is standard. All my bikes including this one have same size.But I dont think this bike fits tall persons. There is only one bike size

Tusq saddles come in various sizes. It's best to measure your existing saddle and then order one that is slightly larger. That way you can sand it down for a good fit. Hope this will be helpful!

I measure th From the center of one hole to the center of the other hole where the two hinges fit measures 5.75 inches. This seat is designed to fit a standard toilet. This product is of very good quality and has outlasted any other brand we have purchased in the past.

I took a tape measure out and measured my seats ...the seat is 20 1/2 inches long by 6 inches thick by 22 inches across.The back is 22 inches high by 22 inches across and 5 inches thick..........THE back fits snug on my seats and the seat part is a little loose my seat could have been a few more inches long where its 20 1/2" it could have been 22"and it would not have hurt at all.My ADVISE ....get a tape measure out and give your seat a quick measure if your in these specs at all your good to go .
