Tried to fit my new seat and discovered that the allen bolt has been rounded off on my Crank Brothers Cobalt seat post. I'll attack it and get a new bolt, but thought I could also use it as an excuse to get a nice new one too.
I started looking and was immediately baffled. What brands are good and which are bad? What should I look for in a seat post? I would imagine weight is important, but is carbon strong enough for a mountain bike?
Too may questions
So, what's hot and what's not?
Current one is 30.9mm (C11TRX) and set back (of approx. 20mm) fixings.
Cheers
