Eric, I’m so glad you started this thread. I went through the same odyssey 
a few years ago and tried the IRD seatpost and it slipped like crazy. Riv 
took it back and stopped selling it because it was a widespread problem. I 
want a bit more setback on my Platy so I’m going to take Liz’s 
recommendation.

Liz - thank you SO much! I was led to believe during my search that I was 
out of luck because most seatposts come in the-27-whatever size and not our 
uncommon 26.8. Can this seat post really work well at only $15?!? 

Much thanks,
Leah
