Review: Race Face Deus Seatpost
Wednesday, November 15th, 2006Bike Magic has some info up on the Deus Seatpost from Race Face. The seatpost is made of 7075 triple butted aluminum, is 400mm long, and comes in a range of sizes from 26.8mm to 31.6mm. What makes this seatpost different from most is the adjustability mechanism. Race Face Maxim created a clamp that allows you to adjust the fore and aft position without changing the tilt or vise versa. For more info check their writeup.
“To move the saddle forward or backwards, simply undo the cradle bolts, and adjust safe in the knowledge you’re not accidently going to lose your angle setting. It’s very smooth to operate and makes saddle setup a simple and pain free process.”

Update: Aaron Hart writes:
“In reality Race Face had nothing to do with the posts design….They bought it from a taiwan company that had already marketed the post in the US for two years under the brand Maxim.”
