WCS One-Bolt Seat Post and Selle Italia Flite Saddle Compatability

[NextTime]

Ritchey Dave et al.

I'm building up a SwissCross and want to go with mostly a Ritchey cockpit including a WCS one-bolt 20mm offset wet red seat post.

Question is whether this seat post is compatable with my current saddle, Selle Italia Flite team edition. If not, do I need one of the clamp kits?

Note: the specs on the Flite rails are: Ti 316 Tube diam. oval 7 x 8.5 mm.

Thanks for your help!

It is compatible but you'll need a different clamp kit.

Get one of these:
Ritchey Logic - Road - Seatposts - WCS Alloy 1-Bolt Clamp Kit

You'll need the 8x8.5 one. Most retailers that carry our seatpost will have these readily available as well.

Congrats on the new SwissCross, it'll be a beaut with all that Wet Red stuff on there. We have one built up like that here in the office and it looks amazing.

Great. Many thanks. Yes, can't wait to build and ride the bike.
