As above really. If it is OK, what's the best way? Fine saw?
fine, sharp saw, slow cutting, then smooth it and maybe dab a bit of epoxy on the cut end
I suppose
Wrap some masking tape around the cut area to help the saw grip and do it in a well ventilated area and use a dust mask.
Remember measure TWICE at least before cutting.
Why are you cutting?
It weighs nothing and its always better to have more than less seatpost in a frame - or is it because you can't drop it?
was just thinking to remove unnecessary weight. I only need a ~220 mm post but it is easier to buy a 300 or 350

Even I never went that far. Ti bolts etc ok, but cutting down carbon to save weight...
can you weight the offcut when you're done I like a good giggle 😉
My Next SL seatpost has marked on it how much weight you save by cutting it down to certain points. It's not very much! Something like 20g per 100mm I think.
Cut the sleeves off your top and sand down your tyres sidewalls, you'll save more!
OK, perhaps Im overthinking this 😳
