So here is the deal. I ride street and trials. Hops are around 32" and
higher, don't do many big drops, I can jump and grind 7 stairs and I'm
going bigger soon. I am currently riding a 19" KH/Onza wheelset with
127mm cranks in a Bedford freestyle frame - seatpost size 22.2mm. I am
currently riding a KH seat which I took from my brother to replace my
seat (LX air) I had before bending that post. In the past 6 months I
have bent 3 stock posts on the KH and a GB4 universal on the LX. IThis
really blows and kills my riding for a couple of weeks each time. I'm
looking to upgrade to stop bending posts. I'm thinking of getting a KH
frame with either a thomson post or a stock post and a KH gel seat. Is
this gonna be better then what I got? If not what do you suggest? Is
this normal? Is it something I just got to deal with? Is equipment not
yet that advanced (I know there is nothing out there that is perfect
but I wanna be close)? If you say I need to work on technique well I
need a seatpost to do that on anyway.
