I'm a seat-forward Rivendell rider person, and I just recently found out. It freaked me out a bit, because I have a few of them with setback Nitto seatposts, and so far, I've only switched to the Thomson on the Ram with good results. I want a good silver seatpost for the other bikes too, so do I need to spring for Thomsons on those? I'm thinking about just flipping the Nittos around backwards. Will this cause problems?
