Can anyone recommend me a good suspension seatpost, 27.2mm, doesn't need to be really long, also if anyone has one for sale that's in good mick feel free to email me.
Really bad experiences also appreciated as I'd want to know what to avoid.

My USE one is fine. Solid and goes up and down when I hit bumps. That's about it really...

Got a USE post from our hardtail tandem that's now surplus to requirements since we got the Ventana. Only did 10-15 rides with it. Is complete with 27.2 shim.
Email in profile if you want some pics sending.

Just listed (on ebay) my Rockshox seatpost earlier tonight...does the job. Been sitting on a spare Gary Fisher in my garage which has had next to no use in the last 3/4 years...

I was in the market for a new suspension seat post myself, and came across a pretty radical design called the Gravity Seat. It says it's supposed to lower your center of gravity and soak up the rough stuff. What do you guys think about this one? Go to [url= http://www.gravityseat.com [/url]

Doesn't look strong enough. The Thudbuster does the same thing but looks a lot safer!

I have a Thudbuster for my Zaskar and its great. I bought mine straight from America and it made it slightly cheaper.
