Strengths: Comfy to ride on. Takes the edge off nicely on my hardtail.Weaknesses: Bent it... I came unclipped while hopping a log, pogo'ed on it two times, and that was that. I only weigh 165, and the hop was only about 4 inches.Bottom Line: I liked the post until now. I did notice that it started to get a little tear drop shaped from tightening (just enouth to prevent slippage, I'm not a gorilla). I'll probably trim off the affected area, and stick it in a different bike...
Favorite Trail: Kent's

Strengths:
TiWeaknesses:
weak post, decals don't lastBottom Line: I've ridden this post on 4 races and a few training rides. It is now noticeably bent! I weigh 175 and never take the post out farther than I'm supposed to. Baaaaad post. I've never had problems with a syncros and the clamp is much better. I don't think there is anything good to say about the titec. It's a pity that schwinn spec'd it on their high-end bikes.

Bottom Line: The absolute worst designed seat clamp I've ever seen. Why do manufacturers keep trying to improve on the basic one/two bolt design???

Strengths:
Light weightWeaknesses:
High adjusting knobBottom Line: The Titec Ti post is pretty damm light. Nice polished finish. I rode this post over choppy terrain and it absorbed a lot of shock. One problem (on the 98 model) is a high adjusting knob on the post. I used a Serfas Dual Density saddle and there is very little clearance between the saddle and the post thus allowing very little flex. I went out and bought a Giro saddle with higher clearance (just like Schwin). I haven't tried the new set up yet. I figured I'd tuff it out a little longer w/ the Serfas saddle. I'd give 5 stars because it's light and cool looking and minus 1 star for the high adjusting bolt.
