They seem to be cheaper than their equivalent electric that is made to work with water cooling.

How far down is the rest of that seat post? Must have been a ridiculously long post. Have you found a friend with a slide hammer?
I got it down to 9 inches I reamed it out with a 1-inch steel gas pipe fit perfect
I got a seat post today and it sticks up about 3 inches on lowest so that will be OK for me, could be chopped down
for a shorter person, post it is a bit long, but it's a nice light used vintage aluminum post $6
There is still about 2 inches in that I am not going to bother with it's seized solid it would never have come out without drill, I tried to get extension for 1-inch drill no success and it would be expensive don't want to get carried away with a $45 bike

I think a short person rode it that why it was hammered fully down and it was a long post
