Oh wow. That's a funky seatpost indeed.
Is 80 a bit high for 32mms ? I'm running my contis at 50 on the front and 60 on the back. No issues with them in a few years.
80's the max recommended pressure for these but I am a bit on the hefty side - 95kg and then some, after comfort-eating my way through Covid! Could get away with less in the front but the rear distorts a bit under my bulk as it is, & may be prone to exaggerated wear & pinch-flats on the local bomb-cratered roads if I ran it with less.
how are the shifters going ? i can get a set of 10 speed to replace my tiagra for £65 that are looking worse for wear .
Fine so far, still just like new. The rear mech has a very stiff spring compared to Shimano, so that makes the lever action a little heavy after the 6800 Ultegra on my road bike - but I'm sure that won't apply to the Shimano-compatible stuff. I have no complaints at all about the functionality of the Sensah components but I guess durability/reliability remains to be seen.
£65's a big saving over 'proper' Tiagra but might be worth digging around to see if there any reviews & long-term experiences out there. I admit I bought the parts for mine fully expecting them to fall apart in a few months, it's so far a pleasant surprise that they haven't!
