Alien Carbon Rigid Seatpost
The USE Alien seat post has been the market leader in the lightweight performance sector for six years. The Alien has continually evolved with the latest being the Alien Cyclops. Using a larger (3mm hex key) single bolt central to the clamp design, the Alien Cyclops makes adjustment easier and faster. The new Cyclops design is stronger than ever and is even 5g lighter. The Alien Cyclops has a unique one-key release mechanism that makes re-adjustment as simple as a turn of the hex key.
"Aside from it's 100% improvement in fitting, the Alien is as good as it ever was - super-light, more than tough enough (although for ultimate strength go for the SUMO head version) and with quality carbon tubing that takes the sting out of rough road surfaces extremely well. In all the Alien come highly recommended and shows that there are still some British brands pushing cycle design."9/10 Cycling Plus Recommended Buy
