not that I have heard of, unless you can get 0.9mm out of the seat tube it looks like 27.2 and a very long shim (length of seat post?)

Cheers, seems that its looking more like that option.
I'm not a big fan of fitting shims, for seatposts.

Thanks for the advice.

yeah of you can sleeve the seatpost for the full length it might be an option, if not new frame time 🙂

Gravity dropper do a 30.0 5 inch dropper.

Good luck getting it in the UK, I can't find any dealers stocking it yet. You could import from the US though...

My bike takes 30.0 and I ended up shimming a 27.2. Not ideal, hard to get it tight enough to stop it rotating but it mostly works
