Description: (
from raceface.com)
The Evolve XC post features an innovative, patented head design which offers maximum adjustability while minimizing weight, all at a reasonable price.
• HEAD
• Forged from 6061 aluminum, the seatpost head is incredibly strong & fatigue resistant.
• Patented head design is lightweight & distributes loads more efficiently than conventional seatpost head designs.
• Offers unprecedented
adjustability - with infinite tilt adjustment completely independent from the fore/aft adjustment.
• The head accommodates 7mm & 8mm rails while providing 35mm of rail support.
• Features a 0.5” rearward offset.
• TUBE
• Oval tubing optimizes strength to weight ratio & provides consistently high strength throughout the length of the tube allowing you to clamp the post down at any height.
• The 3D forged 2014 heat-treated aluminum tube is anodized & shot peened for increased fatigue life.

Pros
Good price.
Decent weight.
Strong; I weigh 200 lbs and I haven't felt any flex and it hasn't broken.
Cons
The yellow safety sticker is a pain to remove.
Review
I selected this when I built up my Giant Trance as it was a decent price for a brand with a solid reputation. It has given me zero issues.
Pros
All the same features of the higher end Deus without the fancy extra machining
Cons
none
Review
A great seat post at a reasonable price. It works as well as the Deus, just it doesn't have the extra bling to it. Great post for those who want quality without paying too much.
