it is that simple.
thomson ~ 16mm of offset and the bend about 3" down the post, which gets in the way when slamming the saddle down.
syncros derived ~ claims 25mm of offset w/ no kink in the post, but i don't know of anyone owning one.

what else is out there? in an ideal world i'm looking for a 27.2 with at least 350mm of length.


edit:
found the titec at 1.5"

if you get the easton, don't get the carbon one. they are designed to be run at a fair amount of extension to flex. otherwise they snap.

Yeah thats the Havoc but the EA70 has 25mm without any ugly bend or kink. 2007 has much better clamp design than prior too...
