Seatpost paint (or powder-coat) holds up just as well as the frame, as the prep's the same. It's never raised or lowered as nobody else rides it, and it's security-bolted in place so I never remove it. I doubt either coating would withstand regular lowering/raising.
Front light is a Cygolite Metro 360, but any handlebar-mount light would probably work. Rear is Cygolite Hotshot SL50.

Yeah I never thought about the fact that once it's set the movement issue shouldn't even be an issue. My beater already has a colour matched fork, stem and handle bars and as they need a repaint I thought about doing my rack and wald basket to match so seatpost might get done too! Thanks for the tips!

Looks great. Loved the original paint and this update looks great too. How does the paint on the seat post hold up? Also what light do you use on the mount? Might have to steal that for my new beater/pub bike setup.
