You were originally using a Ti record/chorus ? I can see why that would be extremely costly to replace yes ! Even more so than the later chorus/veloce ones like your currently running.
There are some nice seat posts to be had for what is I guess a 27,2 ? Even just an older campy seat post that had "thicker" clamps on them.I mean I run a 3T Doricltd something, so I can't say I'm acting what I preach, but also because my daily is a 31,6 diameter so didn't want a huge lump of aluminium.

Yeah you're right I guess, but like u say those posts are now quite speedy (not so much when I got them) so having a carbon and a ti one out of action just cos of dodgy brackets is a bit annoying. I especially want the ti one back in action.
I'll keep an eye on the bay for cheap replacements, but as u point out I should probably get an alternative so I can escape the doom loop of buy break buy break.
And heh yes Max is a good sturdy commuter/beater, not flexy and hasnt rattled itself to death or done the same to me so far :)
