from San Diego, Ca Date Reviewed: April 14, 2010 Strengths: Lite weight 254g for 27.2 and 266 for 30.9, durable(if you are not overweight), inexpensive, and nicely made. Weaknesses: The only weakness I found on my older one was the front adjuster bolt was too long. My seat would actually bottom out on the bolt. I simply cut it shorter and haven't had any other issues.

from Ottawa Date Reviewed: November 4, 2008 Strengths: Light (264 grams for 30.9 size), long, inexpensive, very trick looking, height markings are ingenious Weaknesses: Head design can make it very hard to install saddles where the rails are very close to the saddle shell, e.g., Sette's own Nyx saddle. Height markings are the reverse of what they should be, i.e., the lower number should be higher up on the post, so as you drop the post the number also drops, instead of the way it is, where the more dropped the post is the higher number you have. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 3 months Price Paid: $24.00 Purchased At: PricePoint Similar Products Used: Bontrager Sport (heavy and bland), Kalloys (heavy and bland), Odyssey Intac (total trash head design), Control Tech II (stupidly bulky and overbuilt), Supergo house-brand post (they totally lied about the weight) Bike Setup: 2005 Giant STP1

from Flagstaff, Az Date Reviewed: December 8, 2006 Strengths: Worked ok for 2 years. Weaknesses: Not a solid product! After 2 years the head became unbonded from the mast. If you ride at all hard look elsewhere. I'm done with Pricepoint, as they pretty much told me to go @@## myself on a warrenty return. Spend some extra cash and look into a Thomson, Tune, Roox, or KCNC!! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $25.00 Purchased At: PricePoint Similar Products Used: Other garbage seatposts with bonded heads.
