LOL!

I think that the minimum is 2 inches...

KOXX, KH, Quax should put in all seatposts a graduation, like koxx put
on the Pit Fighter... It's easier to you know "how far" you should
insert your seatpost!

Bye!

lol ... nice ...
i would say it should be an inch below the cut in the frame, and that 2
inches is not enough.

depends how often you want your post to bend. More in the frame = more
life in the post (up to a point)

Is bending seatposts really a problem? I've never seen anyone do it.
And really, the amount of leverage on the seat post at the clamp is the
same no matter how far you insert the post; the issue is whether you
could bend your *frame* due to the leverage the seat post puts on it.
(I've never seen that, either).

So you're saying: if you haven't seen it, it can't ever happen? It's
too improbable? Impossible?

Did I say it can't ever happen? Any failure can happen. Your wheel
could spontaneously taco due to quantum effects. The question is
whether it's likely to be an issue in the real world. In all the years
I've been unicycling at major, large events, and in all the years
people have been posting about broken equipment on this forum, I've
never seen anyone post about a seatpost that bent at the frame clamp,
or a frame that bent due to insufficient seatpost insertion. I've seen
dozens of other seatpost and seat clamp failures. My conclusion is you
shouldn't worry about it much.
