“Setback” is one of the seatpost features and it means how far the clamp part is away from the center of seatpost.
The setback of *VELO ORANGE* cru long setback seatpost is 30mm.
This is one of the biggest setback in BLUE LUG online store.
Personally, I installed this seatpost onto my family bike. Thanks to this big setback, my knees finally got out of the way of a child seat.
It’s not much pricy, but still works great like other VELO ORANGE products. I love this dull silver finish of them.
We use a setback seatpost to adjust the riding position, and some people say it’s more flexible than its straight counterpart.
There’s a bit difficult yet interesting article in RIVENDELL website.
RIVENDELL’s lugged seatpost has about 37mm setback.
Favorite riding position depend on each rider, but bigger setback is worth a try if you ride a small sized frame, or love to ride comfortably.
