Locally available aluminium forward/reversible offset seatpost?

[MudLark]

Hi guys,

 

I am looking for a locally available aluminium forward/reversible offset seatpost. I'm looking for more rather than less offset. But not finding very much out there. If anybody has any pointers as to a particular brand I should be looking for or a particular shop I should be looking in, please let me know – I would be grateful.

 

Cheers,

Mudlark

Hi Diesel,

 

No, it's not for a triathlon bike – for a normal bike. A mountain bike in fact… It's that monster/hybrid project of mine.

Thank you Stall. Something like that. The top Profile Design item is triathlon specific and as such, as I understand it has a specific angle which would make it not suitable for my particular application – also, I think the tube is the wrong diameter, too thin. The lower one it seems would also not work because it is not reversible. There is in fact a suitable reversible Profile Design unit but it is not imported by the local agents. And so I am on the hunt for something alternative.

 

Cheers,

One of the giant seat posts has a reversible head design.

I believe that Race Face also has a post that can work reversed. In fact most 15mm offset seat posts can work installed 180degrees from normal install.
