Hello

After having my leg put in a cast I have decided on a spot of retail therapy. I want to buy a carbon seat post and was thinking of this:

What do you think the max rider weight would be for this? I have looked everywhere but can't find anything.

I am also after some white qr skewers but can't find much and a bling qr seat post clamp. do you have any suggestions?

Cheers

Beefcake

    Check the 3T website but in my experience 2-bolt, pillar seatposts like this are weaker because a lot more load gets placed through the screws and they will snap. There are lots of seatposts out there where the screws don't bear the weight of the rider.

    Can't help in terms of white QRs, but try KCNC for bling seatpost clamps
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    Has anyone used the crank brothers split skewers and seat post clamp? Are they any good? High on bikes have both in stock.
