Can anyone tell me about this?

I looked on wiggle and there is mixed reviews about it

    I have one, got it off a mate who removed it from a new bike so it was cheap, haven't had any problems with it - was a bit fiddly to set up but seems very solid. It doesn't have any setback on it though so be aware of that (unless they make ones with setback now).

    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.

    Inline posts like these can be a real pain to set up and make sure you use a torque wrench on the bolts otherwise when one snaps, it's a long ride home without a saddle (happened to me once 50k from home!)
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    What d'ya wanna know?

    I have a couple of Doric Teams. Do the job and look very nice. I find it really easy to fine tune the saddle angle - just loosen off one bolt slightly and tighten the other. Ltd looks quite a bit more expensive then the Team, but if you've got the dosh go for it.
