Considering dropping the coin on a Selle Italia SLR (prolly SLR XP) seat. I test rode one briefly, and it was the most comfy seat I've been on. Just worried my 240 pounds will turn the seat rails to spaghetti, especially on a hardtail. Planning on a Easton EC 70 post as well, to kill vibration and give the bike some twang. Now the SLR XP has "tubular vanox" rails, what on Earth is that? The SLR XP is heavier than the SLR by 50g, so does all that weight come only from the extra padding, or are the rails stronger/heavier as well?
1) Will I kill a SLR no matter what? How about SLR XP?
2) Will I kill a EC70 post?
3) Are there any listed weight limits on these products?
This bike will be rather strict XC. No landing on my seat after a 4 foot drop. Just trail riding. Thanks all.
