Swiss guy,


The website has a useful "listings" section
http://weightweenies.starbike.com/listi ... =seatposts

the seatpost you are looking for has a claimed weight of 190g and a ww member has entered an actual weight of 218g.

i know the listing-section, thanks.

but how should i know, that this listing means the carbon and not the aluminium wcs post? and as far as i know, the carbon post isn't produced at 280mm, only at 300 and 330mm.

The WCS posts in listings are all made from Aluminium, got no weights for the WCS Carbon yet.
