  • seatpost make almost fuck all difference

    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

  • why not just get the 27 psi out and keep using thomson? As there is no better inline seatpost thats light and cheap enough?

  • I do agree the split VCLS post will add more comfort (probably in more of a percentage as Phil says, rather than an arbitrary X-psi) but Eds point about tyre width still stands. On 4 inch supple slicks with latex tubes the seatpost could be made of scaffolding or be the worlds bounciest carbon, fuck if you'll notice the difference

    Id love to blind test people and see if the real world difference is noticeable
