Newbie here. Curious as to what the max extension for the hobgoblin seat post is? I have heard of frame limits vs post limits, and see the line on the seat post for the max extension. I was also told as long as the post extends below the top tube it's okay. Right now I have 7 inches exposed, which puts the bottom of the post just below the bottom of the top tube. Any input?
on another note I am having a blast on my new hobgoblin. Haven't had any real problems, just the usual adjustments to the shifters and brakes, getting everything dialed in. Not that I have anything to compare it to, but it rides great for me.
I had developed a creak after a few rides, but it ended up being my fault. Turns out you need to lube the pedal threads before installing, who knew? A little red n tacky, problem solved. I imagine there will be many more learning experiences such as that.
