Seatpost and saddle options.
Had hoped my steel Campag post and SLR would work well on this but the steel finish is too close to the brushed ali and doesn't look right IMO.
Instead I've nicked the carbon PMP post and acetoned Rapha test saddle of my 9 and think it suits the build better. I like the relative obscurity of the PMP post and the slim proportions of the saddle. Rail clamp area is a tad lardy but in this instance I quite like the agricultural look. I tried the black SLR on the PMP post but it didn't look right to me, i generally commute in jeans so I suspect the whiteness of the saddle would be quickly toned down. Just need a nicer slim seat clamp, looking at boring but subtle black Thomson, any other suggestions? Colour?
