Carbon Seatpost too long?

Dear all,

Just wonder if I can shorten the carbon seatpost with a saw just like i did to my alloy seatpost? Are there any structural damage to the carbon seatpost?

thanks

Nope, hacksaw with lots of teeth, clean off the edges, use grease, antisieze in a non carbon frame, carbon paste in a carbon frame-go ride.

And also, mark a new minimum insertion line the same distance from the end after you cut it as it was before you cut it.
