Strengths: Great suspension. I like the sideways pivoting feature.Weaknesses: You have to have a right angle six mm. alllen wrench to adjust the up and down of the seat.Bottom Line: A great buy at the price. A real saver on the bum. This is the first suspension seat I have ever purchased. After examining several others I bought the Tamer on the recommendation of the bicycle shop owner. And I am very happy with the purchase. Any mountain biker or road biker would be the intended buyers.

Strengths: lightweightWeaknesses: It broke, it's expensiveBottom Line: On my third ride with this post (and on my first lap of a 24hr race), the post snapped. It broke at the very top where the seat bracket attaches to the post. There was a bang, my saddle was gone, along with the top inch of the post, luckily I did not impale myself on the very sharp piece that remained. I am not a particularly heavy rider - 180lbs. - so that should not have been a factor. I have emailed Tamer and hope to hear back from them soon.

Strengths:
Looks good
Seat Hardware
Doesn't BreakWeaknesses:
None YetBottom Line: I wanted a carbon seatpost with my FS bike and after some bad experiences with Easton posts the Tamer was recommended to me. I've had it about 5 months and I love it, the hardware works and best of all it doesn't break. It may not be the lightest post around but it's still pretty light and it's durable.
