Ryanfullywoolly@mastodon.socialOct 31, 2026, 5:33 AM@enobacon gotcha! That's gotta feel weird at first.

@fullywoolly good video, thanks. It goes into terrain vs the type and travel of seatpost. I think the heavier bike changes some things, but in the superCargo, I am sitting right on top of the rear wheel on aluminum frame, where a spring suspension might be good, besides the fork. The suntour NCX that I have on the tandem might not be a good application, where the weight & length of the bike soaks up a lot of the deflection, maybe I just want elastomer there (and a suspension fork.) #BikeNite

@enobacon I really appreciate how much he goes into the engineering of it. Couldn't hurt to see if you can email him from his website or ask on a forum if he has one.
I'm glad you found it helpful too!
