Straight or layback the new nitto posts are made with big misters riding bikes they rode when they were ten in mind.

If its lay back your after & you want to keep it old school then the tioga's are the best.
I run one on my Raleigh cruiser, they have an internal strengthening brace similar to the sst command posts.
I'm just under 18st & mine hasn't let me down yet.

I had a layback and bent that, I now just bent a straight one

I am just over 13 stone but trying backward hang 5 type of trick and landing a bit heavy

but they look pretty thin and low quality.

I struggled with bunny hops etc with a layback but find straight a bit tight for decades etc.

I've had jeans that have been tight for decades!

One on EBay for £330

Rental laybacks are perfect for a rider or an odyssey layback. Both around £20 aswell.......not £200 like the sst command post

That is very questionable as to weather it is even a genuine SST Command post.
