I always take the Pin out and put my Wheel in! If I don't use a wheel, I would push the adjustable Pin inside but in this case, just remove it.

I mostly sit so I measured with two of my Basses, the Martini and the Gilkes. The Gilkes has the Carbon Fiber rod Endpin and the Martini has that metal rod. I adjusted the height, measured it and gave the #s to KC to custom make the 'Pins.
