Review on ๐Ÿšต Alfa Pasca Carbon Fiber Dropper Seatpost for Mountain and Road Bikes - 3K Glossy/Matte Finish in Sizes 27.2/30.8/31.6 by Abbas Kumar

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Insufficient clamp

Looks cool but the bracket mechanism is not strong enough to hold my seat in place. After each ride, my seat reclined to the limit against the road vibrations, making the ride awkward and uncomfortable. Under 4Nm of torque happened after a few miles. When tightened to 6Nm it relieved slightly, but that's on the limit of cracking carbon fiber. Still, it will hit the limit of the seat at the end of the 30-kilometer journey. I attached a picture: The front seat post is a product. You can see that the bottom plate of the clamping mechanism is pretty flimsy compared to most others. The one I keep is an FSA carbon seatpost.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Some difficulties
