Mate of mine had a (1x) Strada, which he didn't get on with. I borrowed it for a long weekend and thought it was one of the fastest bikes I'd ridden, and I could upgrade the 1x 11 in time to AXS. But I could not get the seatpost to hold. In 3 rides, every time there was always a point in the ride where it slipped. Not massively, probably only 5-6mm, but enough to make things feel off. And I'm only just over 70kg, so not a huge guy. It's a shame, because I think they're great bikes, aside, and back in the BC days (before Covid) a couple of the fastest guys at the local club had one and raved about them.
