Game-changing seatpost for cycling enthusiasts

This seatpost is a game-changer for avid cyclists who want to improve their ride quality. Made with top-shelf carbon materials that provide a comfortable ride while reducing weight, this seat post has been carefully designed to enhance your cycling experience. The installation process is relatively easy, which makes it a great choice for anyone with basic bike repair skills. The only downside is the price, but with the improvement in performance you receive, it's a small price to pay. Overall…

Pros
  • Comfortable ride, lightweight materials
Cons
  • High price point.

What you need for a carbon rail saddle.

Exactly what I needed. I just bought a new fi'zi:k saddle with carbon rails. I didn't realize the carbon rails are wrapped, which makes them oval instead of round like most saddle rails. This part allowed me to connect the saddle on my TT bike to the aero post. Please note this is a single bolt connector only. When installing, I had to reuse the rubber grommet from my stock 1-bolt yoke. If you need both parts, Ritchey sells them too.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Some problems

Ritchey 1-bolt carbon seatpost and clamp set work great. It's a great design, aside from the fact that the clamps have to be replaced (at added cost and inconvenience) when the saddle rail type is changed. They are easy to adjust and hold the position. Highly recommended! If it weren't for the added expense and inconvenience of having to order the exact clamp I would have given it 5 stars. The 7x9.6 clamp also works well with the 7x8.5 carbon rails used in the Pro Turnix saddles I use them on.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine
