my old P2 is that the seatpost likes to slip
My T3 works with lubed screws, carbon paste and torque by the book. I think I roughed up the lacquer with some emery paper too. It's the same post, but mine supports twice your weight. Unless it's the UCI one with the metal infill piece, in which case all bets are off, that was definitely a position adjustment waiting to happen. As @hippy says, if you want belt and braces you can stuff a wooden chock under it.

To be fair I'd buy an older frame.
Reason for (possible) departure from my old P2 is that the seatpost likes to slip. I've shimmed it with a bit of metal can, but it's slipped again. Now I'm having nightmares it'll happen in a race.
I'll speak to xav and see what he recommends.
Perhaps I should just fix my seatpost with a new one.
