As some of you may remember,i bought one of these from e-bay.
I've ridden with it for about 4 or so hours and already,its slightly bent and wont return to its full 'up' position without manually pulling up on the seat.I have checked under the protection cover of it and it is clean,so no grit or dirt is causing the problem.
I have e-mailed the company about it an am at the moment waiting for a reply...you may want to 'steer clear' from these posts,as you may encounter the same problem.It was cheap at £74.00,but i bought it as it fitted my frame at 27.3(i think)I weight around a shade under 12 stone,so not overly heavy,and the stem of the post is made from steel.

As it wasn't about cost but fit (which you mentioned at the time) you should have gone for the KS LEV I mentioned.All the gear, no idea and loving the smell of jealousy in the morning.
