My prob? I’ve very lengthy thighs for my leg size (which is brief… go determine).
On my previous Bridgestone highway bike with a 74 diploma seat tube angle, I had to make use of a freaky-weird particular seatpost with tremendous setback, the venerable (and fairly heavy) SR MTE-100:
On my new bike, a LeMond Nev Metropolis I am fixing up a bit, I figured the 73 diploma STA would provide a bit reduction, however, noooo…. normal setback seatposts are a particular no-go.
A part of the prob is my Selle San Marco Rolls saddle, which does not have loads of fore-aft journey within the rails, however even with a extra ‘mod-ren’ saddle, it’d nonetheless be a prob.
Upshot, I am needing the next in my new seatpost:
1) Not less than 35-40mm of setback
2) The power to cope with a Clydesdale like moi (~ 240 lbs)
3) A smooth seat-rail clamp that will not intervene with me getting each iota of fore-aft journey (the inventory seatpost truly has a blocky clamp that stops full slide-back– how stoooopid)
4) Ideally, a non-outrageous worth (will go as much as $150 if there is not any different choice, however one thing cheaper is most well-liked)
5) Ideally, alloy (however I am going to attempt carbon if the put up/firm has a great observe report)
6) Ideally, non-hideous.
7) 27.2 mm dimension.
Any and all recommendation is way appreciated. :thumbsup:
