I thought all the Cervelo Wolf forks were recalled?

only the carbon steerer ones.

Daniel, do you find the carbon seatpost does much for the ride (in comparison to the Aluminium one)?

LOVE the Cervelo! Aesthetically, that my favorite frame and color they have offered.

I think this is where you are making a mistake. If it was my money I'd be looking for a frame that climbs like a scalded baby monkey on amphetamines. A goat on steroids will just not be as fast uphill.

risking to answer (as i am not daniel)...

i have not ridden the Alu S1's seatpost, but have the carbon one.
the ride was surprisingly compliant (and this from someone coming off a Look381i... one the most compliant frames out there).

my .02$

OP

thanks for comments guys well this is actually my first carbon seatpost. have aluminium on the mtb and motobecane
i have some comfort of it but still its very stiff, the seat makes all the difference for me and i enjoy my selle italia although i removed the soft pad it has its flex on the center... i am looking for the new seatpost without the rotating head, but cant find one for sell , i can order it from the shop but it cost allot of money, so maybe some time later ill change it
