"textContent": "The Tall & Handsome setback seatpost has been a mainstay in the Paul catalog for many, many years. Originally designed and made by the brand's founder and owner, Paul Price, it was meant to offer a better fit for the Brooks saddles he loved (which have notoriously limited fore-and-aft adjustment). Machined in-house from 2024/6061 aluminum, the new Tall & Elegant is (finally) a zero-setback version from the Chico, CA-based brand and features some innovative updates.\n\nFirst, the brand claims each adjustment bolt is spaced far enough from the post to allow uninhibited access, whether using a multi-tool or torque wrench. Additionally, each bolt head sits on spherical stainless steel washers, allowing it to pivot and self-align. The clamp itself has about a 15-degree up-and-down tilt range, which, in addition to fore-and-aft placement, can be adjusted by micro-adjusting the two bolts. Oval and round saddle rails are both compatible with the post's clamping mechanism. The Tall & Elegant weighs 327-402 g, depending on diameter (27.2, 30.9, or 31.6 mm), and comes in black, purple, polished, or silver for US$236.50. [Paul Component Engineering].",
