Long shot, but is anyone running this combination, probably with the Connectamajig removed?

I'd like to switch from a 125mm post to a 150mm B1 version, but not sure I trust myself to check the measurements correctly, and dont want to end up with a post I cant fully extend!

Wiggle selling B1 posts for £277 currently, cheaper than Bike Discount etc

Nobody can check if your legs are long enough bar you.

Edit - more helpfully how much post is showing when you are sat on the bike?

I'm running a size large frame with 150mm drop reverb stealth, 5'11" with long legs. Probably two and a half inches between seat collar and seal. No need to remove connectathingy. Not sure if it is the B1 version though?!

Thanks guys - knowing the gap between the top of the seat tube and top collar is what I was after (as you pointed out Mike...). Ideally the gap when fully inserted, with and without the Connectamajig (the Meta seat tube is interrupted by the pivot).

My GF has a small Meta frame originally with a 125mm post, which wasnt a good combo for a 5' 4" girl - Commencal didnt really seem to recognise that though, so a bit relucant to ask their advice again. And they fit 380mm posts I think, the 150mm is 440. I asked them about this in their office in Erts last year, Max was there, not sure I'll get any more info by webchat...
