A 27-inch shoe. 2 will work for you and in your favor. But there are a couple of things I need to say about this post, specifically about carbon. Grease should never be used on carbon products. Grease will harm the carbon, so use carbon paste instead. Amazon is a good place to look for it. Second, this is a 27-year-old post that I purchased. 2, for my Bianchi, which was slightly too big due to the finish coating they applied. I had to sand the post down a little to get it to fit without gouging the surface, which weakens the post, and I'm not the only one who has experienced this. This issue does not exist in any other seat post. However, it is an attractive post. Whatever choice you make, you'll get a 27. If you use a carbon post, get carbon paste; I ended up using a Thomson aluminum.
Use a PARK TOOL CSB-CUTTING GUIDE and a PARK TOOL CSB-CUTTING TOOL to create a cutting guide. 1 BLADE OF CARBON CUTTING SAW

The seat angle is adjusted with a wheel for one of the two attachment screws, which is then tightened with a traditional screw. (Because the other screw will reverse some of your angle, you must overdo the wheel in the desired direction. ) Negative aspects; I knew the layup was a little heavier before I bought it, and it was a VERY tight fit at first. To get it in, I had to use carbon grit and my rubber mallet, but once it's in, I can move it around - (I needed the seat attached to have enough leverage to move it), but it was possible with some effort.
The seat post failed on 10/20, just over a year after it was installed, despite the fact that it looked and worked fine. The seat post snapped right at the clamping point. Whiskey initially appeared unconcerned, blaming the seat post clamp's torque setting. It's ironic, because I was using a Park Tool ATD at 6nm, which is well below the manufacturer's maximum torque. I was willing to send them the seatpost so they could see what might have been the ultimate cause of the failure, but they apparently didn't want to look at it because I still have it. Save your money and upgrade to a ZIPP seatpost for a few dollars more; it's not worth risking breaking a seatpost and crashing, in my opinion. This was mounted on a road bike rather than a cross or gravel bike.
br>As far as I know, it hasn't been used; however, it is part of a bike build.
The fit and finish are excellent. Graphics are very nice. Everything at a reasonable cost.
