This is an excellent addition to my bike, and makes for a much smoother ride over rough ground. Many of the roads & lanes where I ride in rural Devon are in appalling condition, and I was having my teeth shaken in my head every time I went out on the bike. I wondered about installing suspension forks, and I still may, but this seat post seemed like it might be a quick and inexpensive solution in the meantime. I have to say it has exceeded my expectations. The difference in the ride is very noticeable, and riding my usual routes is a much more pleasant and relaxing experience.I weigh in at at around 155 pounds, so left the spring at the lowest setting.

As a suspension seat post it works really well. Better than the previous one that failed after 10k km and always had a bit of wobble.The saddle coupling uses two bolts and is a bit too flexible, I think, leading to the breaking of one of those.They are 10.2 rated bolts, and it should really not have happened. I think they became lose as tightening needs to be done progressively on each bolt, otherwise the other one gets loose. Replaced the bolts with a2-20 I had laying around in the right size and it is back on the road.Except for this, which is costing it a star, a well priced brilliant product.

Purchased this saddle post together with a low end split saddle as my existing post was shot and the saddle, though soft and broad was ... errr ... causing discomfort. I hoped to take the edge off the some of the bumpier surfaces I encounter, and was very pleasantly surprised at how well made and how effective it was. If the instructions that arrived with it had been for the right saddle post, it would have been five stars - though it wasn't too difficult to work out the fitting and adjustments available.

This seat post has made a huge difference to my comfort when riding over uneven ground. A path with tree roots underneath was a right pain in the backside when travelling to work, now I don't dread it the way I used to. The seat post has done a great job of smoothing out the bumps and I am impressed with the quality, comfort and value for money.Definitely worth considering to increase your comfort especially on a bike with no suspension, and particularly if you are on a budget.

Easy to install and adjust. I do most of my riding on a gravel or cyclo cross bike, on trails that vary from good to rugged, and this makes the worst of them much less uncomfortable. Definitely worth the investment.

Fast delivery & item just as described. Purchased for my daughter's bicycle to replace a broken seat post. She's very happy with it as she can now sit on the seat without worrying that her seat will fall off

I have been looking for a competitive price but this just got my attention. Was hesitant to purchase it before, but, after having my 20-kilometre test ride I can say this is perfect for my daily commute!

Very Nice product, instantly feel the comfort over rough surfaces. Still watch out for large gaps. Great option when you don't want the look of thick padded seat.

This is a compression spring suspension saddle post. You can adjust the tension via a nut on the bottom of the post. The quality seems good so far.

Really impressed with this seat post. I'm about 16 stone and it works well. Seat position does lean forward slightly but ok.

Really helps with the London potholes and older side roads.

Perfect, and not too weighty.
