Ergon CF Allroad Pro Carbon Suspension Seatpost Review - feat. Leaf Spring Design + FlipHead

With the rise in popularity of allroad and gravel cycling there has been a big influx of dampening components to improve ride quality. That includes suspension stems and seat posts which help turn even rigid bikes into plush rides. The Ergon CF Allroad Pro Carbon seatpost is one of the early innovators in this field and has been available on Canyon bikes as the VCLS seatpost for a few years. Ergon has now made the seatpost available for direct purchase with Ergon branding with a $299.95 retail price. Instead of springs or complicated mechanisms, the CF Allroad Pro Carbon seat post uses an innovative VCLS Leaf Spring which stands for vertical comfort lateral stiffness. The seatpost is constructed from a carbon fiber composite and features a 353mm length and is available in two variations: zero offset or a 25mm set back. While companies like Redshift and Kinekt combine standard seatposts with suspension components at the saddle attachment point, the Ergon CF Allroad is a fully integrated design. The seat post uses a VCLS Leaf Spring which is short for vertical comfort lateral stiffness and is constructed using a two piece design. One bolt near the bottom of the seatpost holds the two sides of the seatpost together while the seat clamp region can flex upward and downward. Ergon claims a maximum rearward deflection of 20mm which can help absorb impacts and rough roads. It’s a clever design that keeps the weight of the seatpost down while still providing dampening. Ergon offers the seatpost in a zero offset or the 25 mm set back version that is shown in this review. The seat post is quite long with a 353mm length and has a 27.2 mm diameter. Minimum insertion length is 255 mm while maximum insertion is 152 mm which should accommodate most riders. While this design looks sleek, it comes with a few downsides as the two piece setup does not allow for Di2 battery storage and there is a 220 lb weight limit. The seatpost is not designed for mountain biking, instead it is targeted toward road, all road and gravel cycling as a way to dampen the ride. ...
