I couldn't keep my B17 far enough forward on my LaPrade-offset seatpost when I switched to tall quill and moustache bars. On long rides, my saddle would slide on the rails toward the rear as much as 3/4-inch (I'm the guy with gibbon-like arms they built all those Italian cars for - and long legs - relatively short body, all adding up to 6'3"). When I recently went to a Thomson zero-offset, it solved my problem - my perfect position is with the saddle all the way back in the Thomson.
