quoted £80 for a replacement from a well known company which I thinks a bit steep,so will probably keep riding it untill it goes but will it? or can I be safe in the knowledge my bits will be ok?

Stuff a wooden dowel up it. If it does snap, the dowel will keep everything together for a bit.
Get the right sized dowel (or bamboo) and araldite it in place and you have a "full wood sandwich composite" post.
Erm, it looks incredibly high! How much of it is in the seat tube?
is it bent?
I've snapped a lightweight Ti post. It snapped just riding along with no warning, result was a couple of weeks off riding with a badly twisted knee. If your post is already bent, it could easily do the same...
Will bear that in mind Big John! 😯
Its a 350 post so there is plenty inside, might just go for another Ti post from another company as its not the first time I have had a problem from the companies products.
What Company?
USE?
Full Wood Sandwich is as good as it gets for windsurfers, Rich

Big jessy.
Turn it round the other way for a bit. 🙂
oddly, thats what dingly sailors do with the top sections of the mast to equilise the bend. Improves light wind performance a bit oo.
