I have the Delta Cycle Axelrodz from REI, but was looking at some reviews and saw that the botls can easily be stripped from overtightening. I do not have anything for my seat post, I would like to get something.

Anyway, I was thinking that, perhaps, I should replace them with another brand? Perhaps, one that has better reviews?

Thoughts? Does anyone else use these? Do you feel safe using them (i.e. added "piece of mind" for theft deterrent - to an extent -, actually riding on them etc.)?

Thanks!
