so to be in safe side i purchased a seat post with flip flop clamp "FSA SL-K ITC 0/15" ... which have both 0 and 15 mm setback option just in case "specially the new frame have 2 cm longer reach" ..
it's sold for around 50$/new on ebay , it's a carbon/alloy reinforced seatpost , really nice seatpost .
Thanks, man. Not 100% yet, but getting there. My Kestrel has a seat post that can be flipped in either direction, but I can't imagine flipping it forward. I'm 5' 9-1/2" riding a 55cm frame, and because of my femur length, I have to slam the saddle all the way back to the "max" line.
