The first is for my road bike, and the second is for my stationary bike. I have some higher-end seat posts as well, but I prefer to be able to swap posts with mounted saddles during my tests for a quick comparison. Finding a seat post with an offset, particularly one with an offset greater than 20 mm, is much more difficult than finding a simple straight seat post - Due to my body's anatomy, I require an offset; otherwise, I end up with too much weight on the handlebars, resulting in numbness in the arms, as well as shoulder and upper back pain. PROS: br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>

1. Because it is made up of two parts, an aluminum tube and an insert pressed into the tube, there is a potential weak point where the post could fall apart, at least theoretically. I am close to 250 pounds, and I have had no problems so far, but I am aware of this reliability concern and check on the post on a regular basis. The top-of-the-line posts are molded in one piece.

I understand the allure of $100 dropper posts and such, but unless you're a true hardcore rider, it seems koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo-koo To spend that much money on a seatpost, of all things, is koo. Consider how much beer a hundred dollars could get you! Anyway, for $18, this is an excellent post: it's sturdy, doesn't add a lot of weight, and has a good sturdy clamp with enough adjustability to get your saddle exactly where you want it. I couldn't be happier with it because it fits my old Kona perfectly and does everything it's supposed to do.
My ride surface is completely paved . I don't muck around with my motorcycle. In fact, you should take care of it. I was using my Kalloy Uno seat post, which I bought in November of 2020. A loud pop was heard. My entire body sank to the ground. Make sure you don't crash. I'm not sure how to do it. I slammed on my brakes and turned around to see my seat post mounting parts flying across the road, as well as my new $125 Selle Italia Flite saddle, which was badly torn along the edges. The seat post bolt had snapped in half as a result of the accident. This has never happened to me before in my 40 years of riding. It was possible that I would be seriously hurt. When this happened, I was going about 25 mph and my shoes were locked in Shimano spd pedals. I lucked out big time. I wouldn't trust this seat post because the bolt is clearly of poor quality and could cause serious injury if it were to break, causing you to lose control of your bicycle.
After having issues with a more expensive brand's post failing to stay in place, I decided to buy this. That saddle did have a shorter set back, so I had to push it back further than this one, but I've never had a seat post that bothered me. So- This seat post is sturdy, attractive, and easy to "set and forget," which is exactly what it should be. More expensive posts have their advantages, but unless you're building a dropper post, why spend the extra money on a regular seat post when you could be spending it on something else? This is a lovely and light post.
I like it for the price, it's sturdy, and I have no complaints. It easily supports my 230 pound weight. Furthermore, it appears to be attractive.
My husband's RadRunner ebike came with the most uncomfortable seat I've ever seen on a bike, which was similar to an exercise bike seat and couldn't be replaced with a regular bicycle seat. So he needed a new seat post, and I've had good luck with Kalloy products on bikes in the past. We're ready to go on epic rides now that the ebike has a comfy seat.
When the first one was returned, I tried a different one. The price is reasonable, and the product has received positive feedback, so it appears to be a good buy. However, for some reason, the rails on my saddle were not well clamped by this. Yes, it was tightened to the utmost extent, but the seat would slowly slide forward. I scuffed it up and added shims for traction. It appears to be working now, but I'm constantly checking and it's driving me crazy. It could be the combination of my saddle rails, weight, and seat angle. However, it must function more effectively.
The difference in quality between this seat post and the various "China specials" available on Amazon is immediately apparent. The mounting hardware appears to have been well machined, with no creaks or issues with things coming loose. The only downside to this post is that it is on the heavier side, but that isn't a concern for the bike it was installed on. br>br>The only downside to this post is that it is on the heavier side, but that isn't a concern for the bike it was installed on.
