Hi all - I have a carbon seatpost with just a little too much rear offset - about 25mm. I want to find a good seatpost with either zero offset or maybe a slight bit of forward seatpost. I want to be a bit steeper, but I don't want to go anywhere near a Profile FastForward post.
Current setup: I'm running my seat as forward as it will go right now, and am at about 78 degrees. The tip of my saddle is right in line with the center of the bottom bracket, so I know I can go more forward without screwing up the handling of the bike.
Reversing a setback post: I've read that a Thomson setback can be reversed to give you a little bit of forward reach. Anybody use this setup?
Zero setback post: I believe that a regular Thomson is zero setback. Any others?
