i ask only because its fancy and clearly 'after market', but was there 
something wrong with the original seatpost provided with the build? this 
nitto one has more setback but you still slammed the saddle forward. I 
imagine the stock one Riv uses has less setback and so it wouldn't look 
like the saddle and seatpost are at odds with each other. 

sorry for the tangent.
