Inspired by the "seatpost lust" thread, I suddenly really really want a Miche seatpost. At $70 shipped from repartocorse, it's about as much as a Thomson, but approximately infinitely cooler looking. However, I have about seven inches of seatpost sticking out of my frame, and I fear that that may be too much for the 220mm Miche. So...I was just wondering how much of the Miche seatpost needs to be inserted in the frame. I'll stop thinking about it and get back to concentrating in school if I get a definitive "no, it just plain won't work." Thanks.
