[#3784475]

Can anyone suggest a sub 200g 31.6 carbon seatpost?

Some of the companies claims seem to be somewhat exagerated or only give the weight for the 27.2 version.

Looking to spend under £100 if poss.

Thanks.

KCNC?

I thought 27.2 posts were heavier than 31.6 posts due to having to use thicker tube

I've got a totally unused one of [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=19618 ]these[/url] at 350 mm, you could have for 85quid if you fancy it. Could send you a pic of it on my highly untechnical kitchen scales.

I-Beam, I've had this one a couple of years now with no trouble (except for it been stuck in my TI frame...).

And adding a Ti bolt knocks off a few grams too.

Comfy too, and it also means you can use a light I-Beam saddle:
