Salsa Shaft Seapost™
Number of Reviews:   3
Average Rating:

Put a little spice in your life with the Salsa Shaft Seatpost. Simple independant adjustments and a unique cam-actuated seat angle adjuster make finding just the right angle simple. Mount the saddle, tighten the clamp down, then perfect the angle with the turn of a hex wrench.

Pros: Nice appearance, trick design
Cons: CCCCRRRREEEEAAAAAKKKKKSSSSSS. Heavy.
Time Used: 3 Months
Comments: This seatpost needs to be redesigned with small poly bushings or something to eliminate the creaking. I have dissassembled the unit and greased it thoroughly, and this seems to at least temporarily reduce the creaking.
