I'm in need of a seatpost with just a little setback. Have tried no setback like thompson and won't work. Tried easton 70 and way to much, must be close to 30mm. I need a 31.6 black with 5 to 15 mm. Any thoughts? Why don't seatpost makers publish setback?

Thanks
Mike

Check out the Thomson Setback post. I think it provides about 19mm of setback. Be advised, most of the folks on this forum have VERY strong opinions about the aesthetic sensibility of the Thomson "bent" post.

The Bontrager carbon post will probably suit your needs. It's got a tiny bit of setback, but some.
