I've been avoiding this because I want to be sensitive to the shocks that my bike absorbs. But I think that riding a hard-tail is causing me too much back pain. Unless I'm just sleeping on it wrong. That's been known to happen.
Anyway, I'm about ready to design myself a well suspended seat and post. I"ve got an idea in mind.
But before I do; does anyone know of a commercially available, well sprung seat post. It can not be the typical spring loaded seatpost. I'm a fairly tall guy and the nose of my seat must be behind, or at least directly above, my downtube. Otherwise the bike's too small for me.
Picture a seatpost that's well laid back. Now picture that laid back post with some kind of spring. Is there such a thing available?
Thanks.
