Strengths: looks good and reasonable weight...however...
Weaknesses: ...it fails one of the fundamental requirements of a seatpost - the ability to clamp the seat securely!
Even if you do the security bolt (which is stupid in itself, unless you ride a MTB in NYC for some reason...what's wrong with a nice simple allen key bolt for frigs sake) up beyond the recommended tension, the inherently silly clamp design means that the seat creaks and slips...usually at fairly inconvenient moments!
Bottom Line:
Lucky to get one chili as it's not even a functional seatpost...and not sure what else you might use an expensive bit of aluminium tubing for...
Similar Products Used: lotsa others...never had an issue with a seatpost before this one!
Bike Setup: GT Sensor 29er Pro...which rocks by the way...
