  • Make sure this fits by entering your model number.

  • Switch between road and aero positions on the fly. Adapt to conditions you encounter during your ride. Climb comfortably in the road position and hammer the flats in the aero position.
  • The forward seatpost position replicates the steeper seat tube angle of a tri bike, opening your hip angle and letting you ride comfortably and powerfully in the aero position.
  • The patent-pending linkage design maintains constant saddle-to-pedal distance in both positions, ensuring proper leg extension in road and aero.
  • Part of the Switch Aero System

The patent-pending Redshift Sports Dual-Position Seatpost lets you switch your saddle on-the-fly between a normal road position and an aero position that’s similar to the setup of a tri bike. The steeper effective seat tube angle opens up your hip angle and maintains proper leg extension, letting you ride more comfortably and efficiently in the aero position. Riding a long flat into a headwind? Shift the saddle forward and drop into a wind-cheating aero position. Grinding up a steep climb? Shift the saddle backward and spin comfortably in the road position.

The seatpost is designed to maintain the same pedal-to-saddle length in both positions, ensuring proper leg extension in the road and aero riding positions. Also, since some riders prefer more forward saddle tilt while riding in an aero position, the seatpost includes an additional adjustment that tilts the saddle forward by up to five degrees when you move from the road to the aero position. The mechanism is completely stable in both positions – a spring-loaded stop holds it securely in place until you decide to change positions.

Together with the Redshift Sports Quick-Release Aerobars (sold separately), the Dual-Position Seatpost gives you a truly integrated aero position, without compromising your normal road setup.

The seatpost is constructed from aerospace grade 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. The post is 27.2 mm in diameter by 350 mm in length. Shims (sold separately) can be used to adapt the seatpost to bikes with larger seatpost diameters. The seatpost accepts saddles with standard round 7 mm saddle rails. The seatpost weighs 400 g including all hardware.

Syntace P6 Carbon HiFlex Seatpost Review

Syntace P6 Carbon HiFlex Seatpost

  • Material: carbon fiber
  • Recommended Use: road cycling, mountain biking

Syntace’s P6 Carbon HiFlex is not a shock absorbing seatpost. It is a carbon seatpost that is designed to gently dampen the effects of rough roads or rutted trails, which, in turn, lets you focus on using your legs to put power to the pedals. For the P6, Syntace arranged carbon fibers in such a manner that the seatpost is able to flex backwards under load, which increases a rider’s comfort without any sideways movement. The benefit is that the post takes the edge off of the bumps on your road bike. If you’re on your mountain bike, conventional seatposts and saddles force you to lift your weight slightly from the perch to minimize bumps. This means you’re hovering instead of standing or sitting, which is a tiring position to ride in. Using the P6 HiFlex, however, you’re able to remain seated over ruts in the trail, letting your legs push the pedals rather than holding you off the saddle. The HiFlex also features an integrated carbon head. It uses cold-forged alloy (7075) lower rail plates and deep-head titanium bolts to give 30 degrees of saddle tilt, plus maximum rail support. The Syntace P6 Carbon HiFlex is available in the sizes 27. 2/400mm, 30. 9/300mm, 30. 9/400mm, 31. 6/300mm, 31. 6/400mm, and 34. 9/480mm.
