Nah, the paint/powdercoat/whatever on the surfaces of the serrated teeth was extra thick when I first installed the post -- the teeth looked rounded rather than crisp, which leads to obvious slippage.
Considering there are so many good posts available in the aftermarket for 20-30 bucks, swapping it out isn't a huge deal. Just haven't done it yet, so I'm annoyed
