    The only problem with the wedge post is that its putting constant stress on the welds...

    It is a bad idea to rely on the metal bending to clamp inside the seat tube that's why i don't think the stolen is a good idea, the animal does not slip if you actually tighten it until it doesn't slip. Novel concept isn't it.

    have the chocolate v1, its a lil lighter than the new one, feels nice as hell, durable as well cause im a 200+ lb rider. very clean look... wish he still had the chocolate color option.... kinda like riding a candy bar.

    to contradict i have the wedgepost and it is awesome once you get it tight it ain't going nowhere i would recommend it to anyone

    yo bikerbrad321 weight is not the goal, it is supposed to look clean and it is supposed to be convenient and easy to use

    The animal post sucks no one buy it i had it and it moved really crazy you always have to tighten it. I bought the stolen s.i.c. post and it 1 million times better and its only 3oz.

    most people forget that if you have that animam post you can cut the excess seat tube on your frame so it's an even cleaner look. (just make sure to not cut on the weld)

    that animal post is fuckin dumb. the weight of it is the same weight as a regular post and clamp.
