I have an Easton all carbon seatpost on my road bike and an Easton EC70 carbon tube, alloy clamp assembly on my mountain bike. I had some seat rail slippage problems on the roadbike (Easton replaced it under warranty). Ride quality seemed noticably better when I first changed from the stock Bontrager post, now I just don't notice it. The clearcoat scratches easily, but integrity is not effected.Irishman said:What are some of the best shoes that you have used, primarily comfort without feeling power loss from flimsey sole?
Those of you who have carbon seatpost, how do you like them. Are they comfortable or just for weight saving?
Thomson makes carbon seatposts???malcomm said:I have both carbon and non carbon shoes. Haven't noticed any real difference that I can attribute to carbon.
I use a Thomson carbon seat post on my mtb. No problems at all but I would recommend buying a damn good quality as a friend of a friend had a cheap one snap and he required a bit of surgery after, mind you aluminium ones snap also... wouldn't use carbon bars as if they snap your well screwed, at least bent aluminium can be controlled.
cheers
