Ooo, nice. This is quite clever - still will require insight and effort from the rider, but it should be less of a shot in the dark, if it works. I'm not in your target market personally, but I like the approach.

Are you going all out with triaxial load in the seat post, or uniaxial (posterior)?

You're asking the right sort of question :)

Seatpost is actually one of the simpler sensors, without giving too much away it's sensing force in 4 different directions.

Is the 4th direction time?

Typically it would be a rotation (or torque, if we're talking load force/torque cells).

Limited in what I can say, but you're not wrong :)
