This seat post turned out to be exactly as advertised. My problem with it however was not realizing it is meant for a bmx bike unless you have the legs of a giraffe.
It rasied the rider up about 4 inches as well as the set back which I should have noticed from the reinforcing bar. I needed it on a beach cruiser that I have motorized to set me back from the gas tank but I couldn't reach the ground with my feet after installing the offset post. The bike place took it back with out a problem & Amazon is to credit my card. For this they get a 5 star rating. The post is very well made. Just sorry it didn't work out on my taller bike & I will now have to fabricate something. I could have modified the post but by cutting the reinforcing bar out I couldn't send it back & if it bent down & hit the rear fender when I hit a bump at 30-35mph (with my weight) it would have been a real Kodak moment!

Makes riding a bike with too small a frame just right for a tall person. Strongly recommend.

Was a bit concerned about weight on this post after reading other reviews. I took a grinder to this, and then cut some length off, so it would fit a old cruiser bike. Making a rat bike project with a friend, have decided, that it is plenty strong for a person a considerable weight, and will also lengthen the leg stroke for anyone that is too tall for the bike frame. But I would not be going over jumps and such with this post, for around town curb hopping its fine, but would not put this onto a bike that I planned to be aggressive with. Touch metal and looks great.

The seat post only lasted me 2 minutes after installation. I hit 2-3 bumps on the road and the base (where it connects to the bike) of the seat post was bend 1-2 inches. It's made from chrome and is susceptible to bending.

This is exactly what I needed. I am 6' 2" and was practically kneeing myself in the face on my 24" BMX bike. I put this on and it is much more comfortable now! Stickers came off nice n easy and shipping was fast as always with Amazon.
