Longshot- it's a thing of beauty. This is a two piece seatpost. The head is bonded onto the carbon post stem. There's v.noticeable sideways play between the two. At first I thought the saddle rails needed retightening.

Any chance at all these can be rebonded(?)

Try the warrany route first or for DIY try black epoxy repair filler from Easy Composites - make sure the surfaces are abraded and fully wetted with resin. You can rub down the excess afterwards

You could try a two park expoy adhesive.

I repaired the bb insert in a carbon spark with a loctite expoy (can't remember the number off hand) but it's been good for two years.
