"An inexpensive option to get a 78 degree angle from your road bike. I found that riding in aero is much more comfortable with a FF seat post, no more riding on the nose of my saddle. Still can ride on the bars or drops w/o discomfort if you want. IMHO, if you have aero bars on your road bike, this is the next best cheap thing you can do to improve your bikes performance."ratherbesnowboarding
Ease of use
I find it to be much more comfortable in aero.
Quality of Construction
Seems pretty solid
Fit
I needed to adjust my aerobars to accommodate being more forward.
Comfort
Makes areo much more comfortable. I used to ride on the nose of the seat, w/ the FF, I ride on the seat like Im supposed to and no longer have to scooch back
Adjustability
You can move the post up and down, and the seat forward or back. Thought I would want/like the ability to tilt the seat, but I cant since it doesnt have that option. I have come to the conclusion that I wouldnt do anything different if I had it
Durability
I dont think I'll have to worry about it.
Value
Cheaper than the carbon
Appearance
It looks like a broken seat post w/ the bend. Not as nice as the carbon option, but I didnt feel like dropping another $40 on appearance.
Customer Service
Bought it from Amazon - no problems w/ seller
Performance
It does what it is supposed to
Strengths
Inexpensive option to make a road bike more like a TT bike
Weakness
Cant think of one. I guess, its not carbon. I'm very happy w/ it
