Fast Forward Seatpost Can't Post
Does anybody know who makes a Fast Forward Seatpost like Profile Design does in a 31MM diameter?

ummmm, no one?
I do not think that anyone does

Try a Thomson Layback in that size. Ooooppppsss!
Even they don't make that size.

Might I suggest buying a frame with a steeper STA?
This month's eco melt might be flooding "the Bay" with a lot of suitable frames that are made steep, not jury-rigged to emulate it

Q: What bike are you on?

BP Stealth use to sell a titanium oner, much better and lighter than the profile!

Try a regular Profile Fast forward carbon seatpost with one of these: http://aebike.com/...tails&sku=ST0237

thanks John, it seems that is the only way to do it.

I am asking this for a customer of mine who has a really nice Pinarello road bike, is just getting into triathlon and wants his ride set up in as good a position as possible for Laguna Phuket Tri without having to buy a new bike. i think the Fast Forward Seat post is a pretty good solution, even though it does affect the handling of the bike.
