Price Paid:  $100.00 at chainreactioncycles.

Favorite Ride:
no cars

Bike Setup:
Time Edge 2007, Ultegra 10

Summary:
a great seatpost if you need a lot of set-back (has 32-35m setback). Two-bolt head allows for precise saddle levelleing adjustment.

Strengths:
big seatback, 2 bolt clamp design

Weaknesses:
no height graduation markers on post making precise saddle height adjustment fiddly.

Similar Products Used:
Bontrager race-x-lite, FSA K-Force Carbon Lite (same set-back as this post), Thomson Elite (straight and setback)

Price Paid:  $0.00 at ebay

Favorite Ride:
Sunshine Coast Coffee Grind

Bike Setup:
Giant TCR-0 carbon frame, FSA Elite carbon cranks, FSA OS-115 stem, Deda Supernatural bars, Spinergy Spox wheels, Ultegra gears & brakes.

Summary:
This post is light (about 250gm), strong & has loads of setback. The two bolt seat adjustment allows loads of adjustability and security. It's not as flashy as a carbon post, but it's only a seatpost! - save some dollars to spend on more critical components...

Strengths:
Strong & light & lots of setback. Cheap.

Weaknesses:
Not as much cred as a carbon post. The red plastic plug looks tacky.

Similar Products Used:
ITM, Deda
