Thomson Elite Seatpost

This post replaced a stock carbon post on my road bike, and actually weighs less than the carbon- first plus.

The two-bolt adjustment makes it very easy to get the saddle to my exact position for a comfortable ride-second plus.

The clamping length is about 15mm longer than my old post, which holds the saddle rails much better-third plus.

The clamp works with the oval carbon rails on my Selle Italia saddle- fourth plus.

And if all that is not enough, the clamp and bolts are replaceable.

It's not the cheapest post, but for my needs it is the best.

Does aluminum transfer more road vibration than carbon? Not that I can tell.

Bottom line great post, stylish, worth every penny.

I can't find anything bad about the Thompson Elite seat post except I think I prefer a single bolt tightening rather than the two-bolt system, which I realize gives you much finer adjustment of the seat angle.

Thomson seatpost rock,you won't find another seatpost that is made with higher standards and durability for the long haul.Zack 3-15-2012

I put this seat post on my Salsa Mukluk snow bike. I like everything about this product.

Put this on my Soma Double Cross. Excellent adjustment! Top of the line!

Ive had the same Thomson stems and seatposts on 2 of my bikes for 7 years. They looks great and simple, and most importantly work perfectly. A great example of a part you buy and never really have to replace or upgrade.
