"This is a quality, good looking seatpost. Unfortunately, is is quite a bit heavier than marketed (a good 30g heavier) and if you are counting grams, avoid. Also, the seat binding mech is one of those with the two bolts that need adjusted back & forth till you get the right torque and seat angle, since the same bolts do both. Forget quick adjustments. All & all, there are much better posts for the money."

Comfy, but has its frustrations

"Ok, upgraded the standard Ritchey Carbon post on my CR-1 to this, and after spending a while getting the angle right (it's all down to how much your tighten the front or back screws) had a lovely, comfy long ride on it.

It's funny how you don't really notice the improvement until you really think about it. Less bum buzz, hard knocks felt softer, and heck, it looks nicer too.

HOWEVER. Two things. 1) Stupidly, I sprayed GT85 onto the underside of my saddle before a 100mile run yesterday, and the saddle slipped all the way back 20 miles in. Whether this is user setup or not, I don't know (probably was) but it was the adjustment that was the issue.

I've got a multitool in my saddlebag, like I'm sure you do - and the angle of the multitools allen key made it really hard to get into the front screw on the seatpost to adjust the saddle back to normal. It took 10 minutes of careful twiddling to undo it enough to slip the saddle back and tighten it again. And of course, I set it wrong - but as it was such a faf to do it, I just rode the last 80 miles with the saddle pointing right into my cluster.

Patience and not spraying GT85 would probably have prevented this, but the multitool thing it frustrating.

However, I'd buy it again if I needed to.

Stunning Looks...

Pros: Durable, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit

Cons: Unadjustable, setback bolts

"The 3T Dorico Team seat post is stunning addition to any bike. After riding approx 300 miles the comfort over aluminium is beginning to shine through.

My only issue has been the two setback bolts. Adjustment has been a challenge to get the position I like and the rear most bolt has loosened on two rides. I feel I have solved this with locktite!

Overall I'm happy... As long as the saddle stays where it should!"

Beautiful piece of engineering

Pros: Attractive, High Quality, Adjustable, Good Fit

Cons: no instructions

"When you see it in the flesh, this is an unbelievably good looking seatpost. The filament wound top carbon layer gives it a super high tech aerospace look.
I needed a post that had more setback than my existing one, while being able to clamp Selle Italia carbon rails.
After some research, I decided on this post as a compromise between weight and price.
It is somewhat heavier than my previous post, but that's the price you pay for hanging out over the back!
My only real disappointment is that since I bought this post 2 weeks ago, the "Black Series" post, with titanium hardware, has appeared on Wiggle for only $16 more!
Like most things Italian, it doesn't come with instructions, so adjusting the saddle is a bit trial and error until you get it right."
