A person can only vote for one? I have 3 of the four options, and would have 5 of six were titanium rightly included.
i don't know the purpose of the poll, but if it's anything other than to be pointless, I'd have to call it flawed.

...I think it has something to do with setbacks, and how to overcome them in life. #htfu

No option for a set forward post? What about the folks with a set forward post to accomodate their custom geometry needs?

Is there an assumption that setback vs zero setback is as much of a preference as Al vs CF? If so, that's cute.

After getting my fit I needed to stick with a 20-25mm setback seatpost. I really wanted a Thomson, but i don't like the look of their setback posts so I ended up with a carbon FSA post.

Besides, I think their largest setback post is only 15 mm. At least on the Masterpiece.
