Pace 500 seat post size

[Hiltzinator]

Greetings,

I just ordered a Pace 500 and have been digging through the forum. I see several people recommending a SR Suntour NCX suspension post. Aventon sells these on their site, but they sell the 27.2mm and say that you need a shim for the Pace 500. They do not say what size is needed for it. What size is it?

I was just reading through the manual that i found online and it says it is a 31.6mm

Have you looked at the Redshift Sports Suspension Post? I received mine about a week ago and it has been a god-send for my Pace 500. The rider weight is adjustable and it really smooths out the ride even with the standard Velo seat. I set mine to the value they recommended for my weight and it did not require further adjustments. The small to medium bumps disappear and the large jolts are greatly minimized.

I highly recommend it for its good looks and how it functions.

Never heard of it, but I'm going to look into it now. Thanks very much for the heads up

The Pace 500 step over size is 31.6mm; the step through is a different size.
