PMP Post

I ride with a PMP titanium seatpost with 14mm of setback (SB 14).

Would I notice much difference in the ride 'feel' (road buzz et.c. but not body position) if;

a. I changed to a carbon shaft but still with 14mm of setback?

b. I changed to a zero setback but still in titanium?

Thanks, Jason.

I've had a carbon post, an aluminum post, and now a PMP Ti post on the same bike. I've never noticed any change in road feel. In fact, I'm nearly certain that if I were blindfolded, I couldn't tell the difference between any of these posts, except, that is, for the position they put me on the bike.

Speaking of which, the PMP is my favorite by a considerable margin, so if you decide to try something else and want to sell your post, please do let me know.
