zero offset-material matter ?

[scpknees]

Hello,
I was hoping someone could share some knowledge with me. I need a zero offset post and was wondering if it's possible to notice the difference in material. is a carbon zero offset going to offer less vibration than an aluminum one? I know post's with offset's are not equal what about zero.

Thanks much!

During all these years and using pretty much all materials in bikes but Ti, ive noticed than more than material if there's a problem in fit the seatpost and handlebar even if its made of air it wont work as intended.

I use seatback tho.

On my Colnago Master X Lite - I have swapped my zero offset seat post from steel to carbon on back to back rides.

The steel was bit harsher ride, the carbon smoothed out the road a bit more.

I was expecting the opposite.

Who's making steel seat posts these days?
