so i'm checking out one of those time carbon bikes w/ the integrated seatmast.
the included seatpin is about 12"/30cm long and says in big letters: DO NOT CUT.
that seems surprising to me...if the benefit of an integrated design is supposedly lighter weight, then why cant you cut the length of the inner seat-pin to minimize the total weight? i'd think all you would need is 3-4cm of seatpin inserted inside of the mast...but this DO NOT CUT limitation means you've got about a foot of seatpin material inside of the extended seatmast.
anyone have any info on what the deal is w/ cutting the seatpin w/ time's integrated seatmast designs?
