Totally agree with you, Bob. Before seeing the S-83, the old Suntoure XC pro was my favorite. Even more so when I was riding mountain bikes.
Just purchased the VO post for my LHT. Not as nicely finished, but a bit more setback, which I seem to prefer on this bike. Also was easier to install than the S-83, which for all it's fine points, takes a bit of finesse to fit onto leather saddles. Especially with a Nitto saddlebag grip.
