Hi all just curious on people's thoughts on the giant seat post.
Was looking at the giant defy and the revolt, it's sort of put me off buying one. Having a wedge fitted so you can use a normal seat post is mad if you don't have it in right when tightening can lead to stretching the opening. And a little rubber grommet to hide the bolt that tightens it. Looks awful to me. I know the seat post would be fit and forget in a way but just a shame a big manufacturer like giant does that sort of thing.
