i personally like laybacks, but cut back a little so they don't lay back so much (if you know what i mean)   :daumenhoch:

I like straight posts on race bikes and just the odd freestyle bike for a layback. I think Trick Stars and Performers need laybacks and haro's 85 onwards too. Just my tastes, do as you please! ;)

Thanks guys... sometimes u cannot see the wood for the trees.

I am liking the blue straight post, and thinking about the blue chainring, I do think that would look better.

Personally I don't like laybacks.  Never liked em BITD ither.

I say keep it straight! Who wants a bender near your arse anyway  :P + I hate chrome too, so keep it coloured too  ;)

Keep it straight - does anyone actually like laybacks.... personally i think there is nothing more likely to ruin a bike that a bent post.

but yeah a chrome post would look better, uni's are for minis!

I've got a Chrome straight Odyssey post I don't need used to a showbike so a few marks that would be covered once fitted again.
