Hi, the seatpost seems like great value for the weight.

 

1, Has anyone been using one of these posts. Any comments?

2. Do you get the seatpost in a Setback Version?

 

The KCNC website doesn't seem to provide one with too much information?

I use it currently on a MTB hardtail. Done about five races on it and perfectly fine. Don't know my model but I think the weight is 140 gr.Will check model tonight and give you feedback. As far as what I know they don't have off - centre versions.

Wow that is light, is it a 27.2 post or 30.9? Would be nice to save another 100g of my old post of 287g.

The SC Pro Lite is the "setback" version and gives about 12 - 14mm of setback. The "straight" version is the Ti Pro Lite which is also scandium with Ti head parts, it is also lighter than the SC Pro. Both versions come in 350mm or 400mm with the 400mm being more expensive. The post is CNC so is exactly the diameter specified and the post is also machined with very small ridges so that there is less chance of the post binding in the frame's seat tube.

I have the Tri Pro Lite on my road bike and it weighs in at 130g. The one that looks blueish on the site. Its awesome!!! I weigh 67kgs (as I know weight of the rider often comes up when it comes to discussing kcnc stuff).

The SC ProLite in the pic above comes in at about 200g for a 30.9 350mm

Thanks for the feedback, the 350 mm 30.9 weighs 202 grams, weighed it today at CWCycles.  Best price I can find is R750 at the moment (Northern Suburbs, Western Cape.)
