I'm not getting the seat far enough back with the Thompson post on my Z4 (fresh off flea-bay).
Before I buy another post, I thought I'd try one of my current 27.2 posts with a shim. What size do I need? Parlee doesn't have this info on their website, but I know a couple Parlee owners hang out here.
Thanks.

Mine is a custom Hampsten Z2 model and utilizes a 31.6mm seat post.
It also requires a 35.5mm - 35.8mm collar, and that size situation could potentially be more model-specific between Z1, Z2, Z3, & Z4 models and how they're constructed.
Hope that helps with your shim selection or decision to purchase a new seat post.

My Parlee Z-1 takes a standard 27.2,(no shim) but the collar is 35.8. Jeff N.

31.6

you need a 4.4mm shim problem solvers or USE make them (probably others).
