But it's the wrong seatpost for your bike. I would go so far as to say it's the wrong seatpost for any bike, since it is designed to make a position the frame wasn't built for. Although it might be acceptable as a temporary post for somebody who wants to experiment with a forward position for triathlon, the very fact that you have felt compelled to rape your Telfer with it (I hope you lubed it first) should tell you, along with all the other signs, that you have the wrong bike.
Since it has not been commented before, let me just draw everybody's attention to the pressed in head tube extenders at both ends. FFS, put it back how God and nature intended and go and buy a bike which fits.
