A good seat post is the fit-and-forget type.. like Thomson I've a phobia of carbon fibre seatposts breaking

 

[zenotic]

ay the saddle got what other colors huh ?

 

[tecnica]

200 - 300 for saddle...

 

[sarlame_saucepack]

Sorry, me kpo, the air-cushioned Velo Geltech pad is good. Unlike foam type, it really gives a 'bouncy' feel. Your kar chng feels good.

Anyway, I saw a guy pillion his partner on a nice looking electric bike, like a scooter, with long rectangular seat and rear-view mirrors. They zoom past me easily. Where can I view a good range of electric bikes? Name of shop? Thank you.

Which is better? DCL or Separates???

DCL

XT = 526g/pr
XTR = 442g/pr

Separates

XT disc levers + rapidfire = 256g + 255g = 511g
XTR disc levers + rapidfire = 192g + 215g = 407g

which is better??

Dual or separates?

 

[tremor]

Dual control if something spoil, u need to change the whole thing. Plus it looks fugly. Get separate.
