Are you after super light weight, or more strength? Carbon?0

the first 2. not sure whether to go for carbon fibre or alloy. had been using a fsa k force light with 25mm setback, it was getting scraped if i hadnt re applyd the pace carbon grease to it or maybe i need to give the seat tube a clean out. thinking an inline seatpost would be better.0

If you are getting scrapes and problems with the seat post then the seat tube may need reeming out.
For carbon though, this is a great post and is what I use:

350mm and just 176g, I doubt you'll find lighter for double the price.
For alloy, the Pro Koryak is worth a look.0 -
reeming? would that be a job for crc? yep the eXotic carbon seatpost would do the job seeing im a bit over 9 stone. thanks for help0

Job for a shop yes. Sometimes the seat tubes aren't milled out fully.
The post will be perfect at your weight.0
