I'm just building mine up, baby blue frame, pike, saint cranks, single speed etc.

I just bought a 27.2 seatpost but it's a fricken tight fit, almost like it's not a 27.2 seat tube, is it 27.2 or not? The Unreal bikes website says 27.2 so that's what I purchased.

baby blue. did you get it painted/powdercoated recently? paint may have gotten inside the seat tube. try and sand down the inside of the seat tube a bit.

Got mine off eBay and it came with a post. Pretty sure it's 27.2. Mine was kinda tight until I spread out the clamp a bit -- slid right in then.
