Specialized CG-R Carbon Seatpost
I was looking around a bike shop while on vacation, and the owner told me I HAD to try the Specialized CG-R CARBON SEATPOST. It was cool looking, but I was thinking it couldn't be all that. I did like the mount allowed me to put my seat back further. I thought about it for a few weeks, and decided to give one a try.
I did 15 miles on it tonight. I'm impressed. The road surface I feel in the handlebars is so dampened on the rear end now. LBS gave me a good price on one, and said I could return it if I didn't like it.
I'm sold. I'm looking to get a new Roubaix as soon as they are released, and most all of them come with this seatpost now. I'll be keeping the Crux.
Just FYI

To be honest, with the seat pack on there you don't even notice it, and with a rider on there you can't even see it.

non carbon, the thudbuster offers a series of elastomers in weight of rider ranges ..
but you guys are wanting CF solutions & there is that (18mm of motion isn't much)
I think Trek's Domane frames are also trying designs to take out chip seal Buzz.
