I need a light layback seatpost for the cross bike (27.2). Are there any cheaper, yet sturdy alternatives to Thomson? I find that most of the other companies make their posts with only one bolt. Are there any others that have 2?
What's a good cross seatpost?

look into truvativs team post. its light strong and about 1/3 the cost. it have a one bolt 35,, offset or a 2 bolt 5mm offset options. i have been running one on my XC bike for about 3 mounts now and i have no complaints at all, and i'm normally a seatpost killer
Cool, I'll look into these. I'm assuming they're pretty light and have a setback to them?
i'd get a nice Moots TI one.
Thomson, can't go wrong.
Single bolts are not my thing when you are mounting and dismounting the bike (In CX races at least).
Edit
OOOPS, you said besides Thomson.
What about the Salsa?

I like Thomson posts and use one on my mtb. I'm just interested in trying new things.Thomson, can't go wrong.

Ive learned my lesson in using posts OTHER than thomson. Its not worth it.
I would have suggested the same, however she is looking for something less expensive than a thomson. Lovin my Moots post, worth every penny.
Bingo...
yeah, I think I can't deny my love for thomson

The Ritchey is a good one. I rode one of those for years with no problems. Still have it, I think.
