Black paint can scratch.

Hands down, best for the money seatpost. Buy one and forget about your post.

Pros
My favorite post so far. Light and extremely strong. Quality is off the charts. The tube taper makes for a flexible yet strong post.
 
Cons
The price is rather high for an alloy post.
 
Review
Love this post. Strong and light just not cheap. Like Bontrager said strong, light and cheap now pick 2.

Review
This seatpost is great, it's very light which is important when it comes to racing. Also, it holds up well to quite a beating.
