I’m always trying to balance budget, weight, and major brand reliability, so I appreciate both ends of the spectrum!

yea that's what i'm wondering as well. gonna try it on another bike and see.
Does it fit in at all? I have a 31.6mm Hylix that didn't fit until I cut it shorter. If you're going to cut it anyway then give it a go.
Super mad I didn't find out about these cheap 31.6 posts that weigh 130g earlier, my Hylix weighs 175g!

you know what.. that's a good idea. i was thinking about that last night. i'll saw it off tonight and see. it's a 400mm one so got plenty to go.
also kinda wished they had the matte finish... maybe will try to sand the section sawed off to see if it'll look better.
Well I ordered a digital caliper. It’ll be here tomorrow and I can recheck itJerryLook wrote:It looks like around 31.5mm to me. So why doesn’t it fit?
Edit: I measured mine and I guess it is a little smaller. Still it seems like yours is within the range for a 31.6 post right?
