Strengths:    Holds saddle where it belongs. Plush.

Weaknesses:    Too floppy for me. Above average weight for the carbon post class. Somewhat fiddly set up. May not work with some carbon rail saddles.

Bottom Line:   
Feels soft, flexible. Nice and plush if that is your viewpoint and goal. Might be great for softening the ride of a harsh frame. However, to me it felt like my rear tire was going flat. Somewhat bouncy, too, didn't feel damped, just sprung.

Strengths:    strong, light, comfortable, infinite adjustability, 21mm or 0mm setback options

Weaknesses:    adjustments, though easy and infinite, can be touchy.
above average diameter...required some clearcoat removal


Bottom Line:   
good effective seatpost. the smaller zerts still effectively damp vibration while allowing the seatpost to be set deeper than the original if necessary. the seat clamp has infinite adjustability making finding the right position very easy...only drawback to the single bolt setup is that to adjust your fore and aft positionoing you may inadvertently change the tilt. the diameter of the post was also slightly above average and required a little help to fit my frame.
