Hi,
I have a question about seatpost height and also carbon seatpost recommendations. I have a medium frame Cannondale Trail SL2 29er and I am 5'10" with between a 33.5 -34 inseem. The stock seatpost is a 350mm and is a little bit too short for me. When I am at the minimum insert line my legs are still bent a little bit too much.
A 400mm seatpost should fix this issue has I only need a little bit extra. How abnormal is this to have to use a 400mm seatpost?
Also, I want to go with a carbon post to take some of the harshness out of my hardtail. What are the pros and cons of a setback post vs. straight? Any budget carbon post recomendations?
Thanks,
PersonTX
