The Chainlink

Where can I find something similar to this:

My post diameter is 36 MM, I think  I don't know what the inner diameter of the tube is.

Moving the saddle back by sliding back on the mounts has resulted in a recent break so I'm looking for a way to mount the saddle further back.

If anyone know of a local shop that has, or can get, something like this let me know.  I's prefer to shop local that search online.

Thanks.

I understand special needs for fit and comfort more than most people; I have set up many people with limited mobility and other issues comfortably on bikes.  

The thing here is that the problem itself doesn't really make sense, I've never seen anybody unable to fit between their saddle and stem provided the bike is close to the proper size.  There is also the fact that the solution to the problem is exactly the sort of thing that can cause discomfort.

I think DUG does not fully understand the sometimes special needs and conditions of age and type specific cyclists. Bob Kastigar is asking for help and assistance from this community so he can continue to ride in comfort. Yes, this issue seems to be a fit issue and Bob is dealing with a bike setup with alternative standards. A bike mechanic should recognize this situation, then advise the cyclist of his best/safest options and risks and then let them decide on how their bike will be setup.

Bob, your setback saddle mount post will be under more stress than usual and have a higher propensity to break once again. I would always try to have access to a stand-by replacement mount post in the future. Keep riding ! Good luck !
