Fellow cyclistes,
I am now looking for a "straight" alloy post with a setback (curve) of 1.5 - 2 cm, for a better saddle position with my beloved Ideale alloy-rail saddle. (The alloy rails permit almost no fore-aft adjustment.)
With a 69 cm pedal-to-saddle height on a 52 cm (c-t) frame, I only have about 8 cm of exposed seat post to work with between the Ideale alloy rail clamp and the seat cluster, which is shorter than most set- back seat posts with round rail clamps can manage.
Have any of you ever seen any "straight" alloy posts with a setback?
Still tilting at my windmills,
