Seatpost help...any good ones without logos?

[blschaefer1]

Anyone know of a high quality, non-setback seatpost WITHOUT any logos or graphics ?

For my wife's CDA. The problem is that there is little of post exposted in teh seat tube and the logos/graphics get cut off in the middle.

Eriksen and Moots posts take some acetone or finger nail polish remover wipe the decals off and your good to go.

Another solution to your problem just put a saddle bag on her bike you won't even be able to see the seat post and she can carry a tube and a powerbar.

Thanks ! Think the acetone trick might work with a Thomson ?

Not on the Thomson, it is etched in the alloy.

doubt it, í think all thomson logos are laser etched

. . . I got the lettering off of my Deda Blackstick with some 400 grit sandpaper, then put some Armor-All on it and you're good to go.*

BBD--there was a fad when CDs first came out that applying Armor All to them made them sound better. All these audiophile nerds shined their CDs then learned a couple years later that the treatment had dissolved the plastic. No more music!! oops!

Nice video on Moots seatpost.

Interesting the tester talks about the attention to detail Moots it known for and I am certainly NOT here to argue that fact. But note on the close up of the test ride the Moots seatpost is inserted backwards. The “MOOTS” decal faces the wrong direction as would be read from the front of the bike. If he is worried about attention to detail installing the post correctly would be a good first step.

Also I am proud to say I am NOT a member of his club and never will be!

And noway are you going to remove the Thompson Logo with out some serious grinding; NOT a good solution to your problem.

Good luck in your search,

I own this seatpost. There is nothing wrong with the way its installed, save the aesthetic detail of the decals. The seatpost clamping mechanism has no front or back, hence, it is installed correctly.

Just sayin'

Albert Bold makes very nice posts. Mine has his logo on it, but it is very very subtle.

Quite the contrary; this is the new Moots Cinch Post. It has a stop in it for tilt and placing it back ward limits how far you can tip the nose up. If you have an old Moots post then it won't make a difference except it is backward print atleast for most of the population of fashion conscience cyclist. Unfortunatly I spend more time looking at my bikes than riding them little details bother me. I can't even tell you how many people ride with the front wheel mounted backwards.
