Harold Parker Forest
Duration Product Used:
1 Year
Price Paid:
$35.00
Purchased At:
eBay
Strengths:
Strong! As light as, if not lighter, than Thomson Elite. Clamp mech is easily adjustable. Looks slick!
Weaknesses:
None
Similar Products Used:
Various OEM Specialized posts.
Bottom Line:
Lighter than Thomson. Looks just as cool. Cheaper..even MSRP is cheaper (I got mine on eBay). I think Truvativ is underrated, especially for XC parts. I always think of them as making great freeride and downhill components.

Longer than the seat post the midget who had my bike before me had cut. Hasn't bent

Bottom Line:
Quality seat post. I'm about 200 lbs and no problems. Looks good, seems well made. If you're looking for a cheap quality upgrade form your stock post I think this will do you well. Don't get the non-team truvativ cuz apparantly it really blows (though I don't know from personal experience)
