Kalloy suspension seat post, 350mm/25.4, silver
Suspension seat posts offer cyclists one thing above all: comfort! They skillfully absorb smaller bumps and also absorb larger shocks from curbs or tree roots. This not only makes riding more comfortable, but is also good for your back, because shocks are absorbed instead of being absorbed by your spine. Moreover, you are more stable on the bike.
This seat post fits in a frame tube with a diameter of 25.4mm. This seat post has an extra long length of 350mm. The saddle can be mounted directly on the head of the seat post, so no saddle strap is required.
A suspension travel of 32 mm means that the seat post can spring down a maximum of 32 mm.
What is the offset of a seat post?
The offset is the distance between the central axis of the seat post and the place where the saddle is attached. This can affect the position of the saddle and the riding position of the rider. For example, a seatpost with a greater offset will position the saddle further back, which can result in a more relaxed riding position and less strain on the hands and wrists. A seatpost with a smaller offset, on the other hand, will position the saddle further forward, which can result in a sportier riding position and more pressure on the hands and wrists.
