I have only bent two, none broke so far

I thought that welding aluminum would take the temper out of it or
something and weakened the metal around the weld. I could be wrong
though, never welded aluminum myself.

Just wanted to add, having a spare seat post is always a good idea. But
having a spare CrMo post around is one of the best things you can do. I
will never go on a uni trip without throwing my steel post into my bag.
Even now with my PF I still will not leave home without a "FRESH"
Aluminum, or my good old trusty CrMo post, or both if its a long trip.



Yea I second that, I have the same cromo post as that, Im runnung with
it whilst I get another aluminium post or fix my old one.

Having a spare cromo post is definatly a great Idea, your post can
break at any moment without any warning, if its at the start of a long
ride you will be dam ****ed off but if you ride with a spare there is
no worries, you can just swap it out.

That looks pretty good. I'm thinking of doing something like that
except 2 gussets instead of 1.
