Broke my seatpost

[_Daemon_]

So, while I as just riding along...my seatpost snapped.

 

Ok, maybe the "just riding along" happend over a tabletop jump in Kungweni bike park

Yes it's a weightweenie xc/road KCNC post, not meant for tabletops etc. But seriously no extreme force was excreted on the post, nothing more than what a rocky race will provide, Magalies Monster, or one of the drops on the XC loop in fountains.

 

Oh well, replaced it with a Thomson post.

Out of interest how many people knew of this place?

Very rarely see other mtbers there and the place is super fun to ride.
