Seat posts

To keep water out of the seat tube and possibly show any seat post slippage??

Hi Chris M,
TO keep water and dirt out, plus to help stop anyone remove my seatpost.
It will not slip

Hi Pete

That sleeve you've got over the seatpost/collar/seat tube looks interesting, is it waterproof? If so, where would one get such a thing?
Incidentally, I bought a Thomson seatpost a couple of weeks ago, and I like it so much I bought a second one for another bike.

What makes a good seatpost? I've got the standard Thorn one and have no idea why I'd change it.

Hi Well,

1st, Strong

2nd, Light

3rd, Easy to adjust

4th, Design

5th, Well Build

So I mean a Thorn seatpost is very strong, Not Light and hard to level But is of low cost!
A Thomson is Very Very Strong, Light (there is lighter But not as Strong), of very good Design, Very Well Made (Made in the USA), Easy to level.
But it comes with a high price
