I too really like the Erickson Sweet post. It is by far the easiest to adjust for me.
I ran exclusively Thomson seat posts prior to the Erickson and found them easy to adjust as well. Ride safe and stay healthy. |

I will take an Easton ISA seatpost over anything else. I certainly haven't used them all, but coming from the aggravating two bolt Enve clamp, the Easton design is pure bliss. You can move the saddle without changing the seat angle, and conversely it allows for angle adjustments without loosening the seat clamp.

Great suggestions. If possible I would start with a Salsa, but the EA90 would match the EA90 cranks. Please lmk if there any sellers here of any of the posts mentioned.
I am most interest is getting tilt right, as I have always gone flat. But with a totally new setup, I found tilted way back to be surprisingly comfortable. Sitting solidly on the sit bones I could easily rode balanced with my hands llfted 2-3 inches off the bars. I have tracked the DK thread here on PRO saddles, and others, and want a controlled way to isolate things a bit. I used to be blessedly resolved on saddle setup, but that was bitd of one road bike, better bod, etc. Last edited by RWL2222; 02-27-2021 at 07:02 PM. Reason: Clarity |

If you're bike needs a larger diameter, seat post shims work very well.

I understand they will no longer sell them.

Yes, this explanation is why I dumped the Fizik. It doesn't seem like such a hard problem but they didn't solve it: how to grip the rails in with one control, and change angle with another. I found it exasperating to adjust and went with a one-bole ENVE--also not great, since once you knock the bolt lose, the universe goes back to pre big-bang and you start at zero again. |

I do like the Deda superleggero post, it's a two bolt design and as others have noted, with a two bolt you can ease off tension on one bolt and tighten the other to get appropriate saddle angle without affecting fore/aft. All the two bolt seatposts I've encountered have been similar in that respect - ease one off and tighten the other and you're able to tweak well. The Cyrano that's been cited sounds like an outlier. |

You know, I am glad I asked. I figured I was simply fiddling with old technology again. But the issue seems very current, at least for road riding.

Easier than that, however, is the American Classic seatpost I have on the Giordana. As long as you're not landing on it (like racing CX) a Control Tech seatpost is pretty easy too, but it does have ridges so it isn't infinitely positionable The Shimano/Pro Vibe seatpost is 1-bolt, so is pretty easy to adjust as well.

Agree with the Eriksen, Moots and Thompson. I found the Syntace pretty easy to adjust as well.
