Thanks to everyone who suffered through the list of questions - much appreciated.
I posted here first as I thought it would be the toughest crowd, admitted I'm not a hardcore cyclist, I do have a Guerciotti road bike, a Mountain bike, an old school BMX, a '71 old school triumph chopper and a moped - so i'm more of a mix of a type of guy.
Like all good things, everyone has their preferences, as a designer looking to get some ideas off the ground its good to know if there is a clear favourite.
Fizzy and Scilly, yes, I cant compete with Fizik and Thompson, this is very much looking at a styling exercise rather than a revolution. Looking at colours, metal finishes, manufacturing methods.
Its possible some people wont be the target market, but when it comes to making a prototype all this information is helpful to zero in on the initial seat post.
I think I'll update the survey so some things are clearer, I think it reads as too open ended at the moment.

At the very least, thanks for posting here for this reason and not because you expected your ideas to be so cool that we were bound to give you an egowank.
