recommend me a setback seatpost for carbon rails

forward_loop

pretty self explanatory really....
I've had an expensive mistake with Ti rails before !
Saddle: Selle Italia 135g - carbon rails
31.6mm seatpost diameter and doesn't need to be any longer than 300mm

been looking at the pro stealth evo's and easton ea90's - but am unsure as to the clamping mechanisms

Thanks in advance.

Depends just how much setback you want. The FSA K Force Light seatpost comes in 3 options, one of which is 32mm which I have just bought. Very nice if a little pricey. I don't have carbon rails but don't see why it wouldn't work with them (as long as they are 7mm), being a decent spec and all that.

Based on my experience I would be cautious about using the pro stealth evo post with carbon rails. Although it is supplied with a separate wedge clamp specifically for oval carbon rails it is an incredibly tight fit. I have tried it with both Fizik Antares and Selle Italia Team carbon railed saddles and for both I am not comfortable with having to force the carbon rails into the clamp. The wedge is tightened from the side but has a sort of claw mechanism that hooks over the rail.

Ended up using my pro evo seat post attached to a saddle with round titanium rails.

Would a Thomson Masterpiece suit? I've got a titanium hardwared 31.6 350mm setback one for sale that currently tops the scales at 170 grams.

Can highly recommend Thomson for having excellent compatibility on their clamp with the oval carbon rails on my Selle Italia

Deda Zero100 will take oval rails no problem.
