[#1796731]

Got one of these which came as part of an overall package with frame/fork.

Not ridden an uppy/downy seatpost before and am not really sure about I want to.

Hear lots on here about Joplin, Gravity Dropper, etc but not much about the Command Post.

Is it any good, should I get used to it, or should I just bung it in the Classifieds?

I recently got an uppy/downy seatpost and love it! Wouldn't go back now.

The Command Post is relatively new to the market, so that's why there won't be many reviews etc.

Ride it, then decide what to do.

Heard mixed reviews but that's the same of all the adjustable posts. Every one has it's fans and critics.

I've just bought a new bike that comes fitted with a KS I900R - again I've read the good and the bad but will give it a go and make my own decision.

I do like the sound of the RockShox one as I suspect it'll take the best elements of all the rest but the price is likely to be ridiculous.
