Is there a rider weight limit for the speedneedle? At my heaviest I come in around 170lbs, I think that comes in at about 77-78kg

you can get the old head style to work with TSN. you need to get an o/s clamp head and then file the part of the clamp head that contacts the post.

Im running this on my mtb

The New Ultimate post I received last week needs a fair bit of filing for it to fit my TSN.

Well I'm presuming there is. There are gaps around the rails on the clamp wheras my SLR fits perfectly, are small gaps ok with a TSN?

¿Is Giant TCR ISP seatpost compatible with this saddle? I can't find this information because I don't know the model name of this miniseatpost of the Giant TCR ISP

The Syntace P6 post is compatible with Tune Speedneedle (old version).

The bolts should ideally have been a few mm longer, but in practice it is no problem.
