    Here ya go: http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showt...light=Seatpost

    *if* the LBS mechanic tightens it, it stays. Otherwise, it moves. They're telling me if I replace it with a Thompson seat post, it's much less likely to happen.

    But a carbon post in an aluminum frame - definitely go with the carbon paste.
