Seat post

Had my first ride on new Elby today and given that there is no suspension, I felt a little beat up! A suspension seat post seems to be a possible fix. Any recommendations? I think I read that the current seat post is a strange size.

so.. what size?

SEAT POST LENGTH:
500 mm
SEAT POST DIAMETER:
39.9 mm

Good timing! Thanks for all the info! I was looking at the Suntour — like the price I am seeing here. I will check out the Kinekt too.

I just discovered that Elby sells a shim — $40(!) — they certainly anticipated this problem to their advantage!

Maybe this one?

Looks like it might work ... Thanks!
