Problem with kalloy seatposts is that the saddle angle adjustment mechanism is notched. The notches can be easily seen in the second link above.

So in my case, at least, the saddle angle is impossible to get right with a kalloy. Either too upwards pointing or too downwards angled. I guess you get what you pay for.
