I hate you guys. Mine looks so cool sitting in the box. If anyone wants a steal on a record carbon post (BRAND NEW!), mine will be hitting eBay soon.

Why? There are people on here who could wreck a cannonball in a sandbox with a rubber mallet and then claim it was a bad design. Ignore them.

If this many people are having problems, screw it. I don't even want to risk it. These days, I have zero tolerance for expensive gear that can't perform its basic function.

And there are the majority that couldn't discern a good design from bad if it hit them square in the head. Those blind folks should ride a single bolt serrated post.

I have decided it is time to sell all 3 of my Campy groups on ebay. If they can't make their stuff safe i just won't have anything to do with them!

I found this image posted on the Campagnolo website. It is the revised Super Record seat post for 2009. Based on advanced aerospace technology so i am told.

And I do. Let's see, there's my DA post, Deda Blackstick, Corima Aero, and of course my Record. No issues with any of them.
