I have an Alien, it Rocks, but is not aero.
Pedal Force has an aero post that is light, bare carbon, and inexpensive.

Well, if it is inline with the quality of their frames, then I am sure they are as good as any other cf post coming out of Taiwan, since that's where they're all made anyway.

Apparently Aero seat posts don't really provide an aero advantage with a rider aboard, but they do look cool.

To help out a novice here -- What's the difference between a regular seatpost and an aero seatpost?
Is it just the look/design of them to be slightly more aerodynamic?
