I'm seeing an alarming number of these back-to-front layback seatposts recently! Is there something going on I haven't been told about?!!

90s mtb's have long top tubes, many 90's mtb riders spines are not what they used to be. It's a case of forcing a comfortable riding position on a bike that is probably not ideal for the riders needs. It's cheaper to turn the seat post around than it is to get the right high rise short reach stem.
