RXL SL Carbon Fiber Road Bike Red Offset Bicycle Seat Post 31.6/30.8/27.2 Bike Seatpost Red Green Blue …

Honestly I did not know what to expect at this low price but super impressed with this seat post, rock solid, granular two screw seat angle adjustment. Very happy with this purchase!

I endorse this seat post--it's stiff, lightweight and has aesthetic qualities.However, I come across many reviews who experience cracking with carbon seat posts in general. While I have no idea how they installed it (whether correctly or incorrectly), I think it's important to note that using this post requires carbon friction gel. Carbon's structure is prone to cracking if the seat post clamp is tightened too much. Carbon gel helps with creating internal friction within the frame so that the post cannot slide down. This allows you to tighten the seat post clamp less to minimize breaking the carbon post. I know this is not readily know to many, but it's important to note if you want to get the most out of this product.

I have recently purchased a new full suspension MTB and needed to shed some weight. The seat post it came with was little too long and heavy.I have bought two of these because the price is very good compared to other option.Here is what you need to know:- The seat mount system little inconvenient. What I mean by that is that the front adjustment bolt can be only really adjusted before putting the seat on, so you need to figure out the angle and adjust the bolt before you put the seat on. Only the rear bolt can be tightened once the seat is on and this only allows for forward and backward adjustment but not angle.- Not as light as one might expect. The carbon walls are pretty think, which is probably a good thing but this means at the cost of weight. Still lighter than my aluminum.- Pay attention to the length of the seat post. If it is too long it can be cut down but be careful and wear gloves as there are some carbon fibers inside sticking out.What I like:- Lighter than my aluminum post.- Seems sturdy so far. I will update if it breaks.- Color is not bad either.Shortcomings:- I wish mounting system was more on a traditional side with both bolts adjusting from the bottom.- I wish the maker offered shorter post.- It could be lighter. Not sure why walls are this thick.- I wish the inside did not have any rough fibers sticking out.I would buy it again as overall it seems like a good value and would recommend it as well as you can live with the shortcomings listed above.

I got this to add a little more compliance to the seat on my hard tail. This was a functional purchase, not a cosmetic purchase. I don't ride with all my weight on the seat, never bent a post or seat rail and don't think I'll wreck if the post has a catastrophic failure. so I went cheap.The aluminum hardware is standard post hardware nothing good or bad, just works like it should. I have always preferred this seat hardware style to others. the post rocker diameter is a bit smaller so the hardware rocker doesn't seat fully until tightened down. the dowel nut hole is oversized and the dowel nut is not centered in the hole. the scale silk screen is slightly off center. it measures 27.2 diameter. The carbon post itself looks and feels well made and the entire thing does look good from 4+ feet away. kinda suspect these are the posts that don't pass cosmetic QC.It provides a noticeable amount of flex just pushing down on the seat with my hands against 35psi tires.initial ride is smoother. as long as it doesn't fail with normal riding I recommend it. I'll update when it fails if it does.So far so good.approx 50 mile of trail so far. I can feel the post flex over bumps when I ride fully seated like having about 3/4" suspension travel. just enough to take the edge off. running 30 psi now and haven't pinch flatted yet

After riding on this seat post since July, this morning it decided to snap in half. Not only did it break, but I did injure the inner part of my crotch, but it could’ve been worse. It was installed by an actual bike shop that I have been using since 2013. This is crazy, and I had high hopes for it to work, but needless to say, I will never buy a cheap carbon fiber anything ever again.

So far this post has beem great for me. I am 6ft and 200 lbs, and it feels solid. I haven't had any creaks, cracks, or anything alarming. It flexes just enough to soak up some of the road vibration. Installing the saddle really isn't a big deal, you don't need a saddle with a hole in it. You just adjuat the tension of the front bolt firat, and them tighten the back to get the angle that you want. When the back is loose, you can turn the front bolt with your fingers. It only took me about 10 minutes to install and adjust. I haven't had any problems with the saddle rails slipping. The fit amd finish are great for the money. I will update the review if I have any problems down the road, but so far 5 stars.

Overall I really like this seat postIt is over 400 grams lighter than OEM aluminum oneIt conveniently has numbered lines for seat post heightIt provides a smoother ride than aluminum seat posts because the carbon fiber absorbs vibrations betterIt looks sleek in the matte no logo colorThings to remember:DO NOT over-tighten as it could break the seat postWithout a split saddle, you must tighten the front bolt first and level the saddle which is inconvenient

This is my second RXL SL Carbon seat post in three years. The post itself held up fine and I was happy with it, but the clamp bolt rusted out and broke. There are two bolts on the saddle, one to adjust angle and the other to tighten the seat. The bolt that broke was the one used to adjust the angle and there was no way to fish it out to fix it. Really wasn't a big deal because the seatpost was cheap to replace, it is light and helps round out my carbon fiber bike.

Awesome product and great value.
