31.8mm is an odd choice but I did tell the builder to choose what tubing he feel is best.
Do bear in mind that the bike is a lightweight steel bike with clearance for 42mm tyres, seatpost make almost fuck all difference unless the bike is incredibly stiff with high pressure tyres.
TL:DR; right tyres sizes and pressure make a bigger difference than seatpost stiffness/diameter.
As for bar, they are the Grand Bois/Compass Mae shape with a huge 105mm reach.

Hmm any data to back this up? Just playing devils advocate really as everything I've seen from @MechaMorgan about this suggests something like seatposts making up to 20psi of difference. Curious really as I have a 27.2 inline thomson on my incredibly stiff OS Zona cross bike

Both are proper lovely Ed. Neither are bikes I could see myself needing but clearly very well thought out details. Only, why 31.8 seatpost on the Cycles in Motion? Must be very stiff especially with a Thomson no?
Also id on the bars used? Assuming theyre the same for both bikes. Looks neoclassic but in what I assume is 26.0
