I usually leave seatposts out as far and stems as high as they go until a bike fit has been done.
Not much chance of garking a Thomson post but old habits from fitting easily scratched Campagnolo posts die hard...

Cheers, Nick! I don't think so at the moment - the ones I have worked on lately have been privately imported.

What do you think of the Topolino wheels Oli?
I had a pair a few years back and they rode very well. But they had a clicking that could not be sorted.

They seemed okay in my brief test rides, but I reserve my judgement until they've been ridden for a while...
It's odd, I hadn't seen any since they first came out and suddenly I've fitted three pairs of late.

Last I knew it was Multisport bikes in Takapuna who were the Nz importers for Litespeed
Not sure if they still are though.
