3. Allowed me to get some other crap.
Having $200 wrapped up in a seatpost is pretty nutz unless you're gonna make good use of it. If I lived some place where I'd get more up'n'down time with it, then I'd definitely say it's a "must have". I went for a couple of trail rides here with it up the whole time...and I didn't notice much of a need to drop it. YAY FLAT KANSAS!!! So I'm back to slummin' on the Thomson
