One of my co-workers was asking about suspension seatposts, because he has had some back surgery but likes to ride singletrack. He's about 220 pounds and has done some Sport-class races, so he's likely to put a bit of stress on it sometimes.
I shared with him my lukewarm experiences with a couple of telescopic posts, the Rock Shox and the USE, and told him that I would pick a parallelogram-action model if I could afford to experiment again. He asked about the durability and suitability, so I said I'd post the question here.
Any/all comments, experiences, and second-hand information is welcomed :)
