ThomsonMasterpiece Seatpost(Return to Product Page)

I'm a bike enthusiast and put in 100-120 miles a week and will only go with Thomson, strong and dependable

I purchased this seatpost as I was revamping my 2006 Ibis Silk Road bike. The previous post was an Easton EC-70 with a 1.5 cm set back. I wanted a more forward position on the bike than the previous post allowed. I purchased this post and it does exactly what you would expect of a seatpost. The finish is beautiful and resists nicks and scars as only Thomson seems to know how to do. The best is the seat rail clamp and adjustment. I can't understand why some posts struggle with this, but Thomson's system is simple and secure. Very easy to adjust and torque to spec. And, the black looks great on my nude carbon frameset. I looked at several all carbon posts and really couldn't justify the extra cost with no reduction of weight. I know that some carbon posts indicate an improvement in ride quality, but I'm not buying that claim. No squeaks or creaks, no unintentional loosening. The Masterpiece I bought is the 31.6 mm diameter, 350 mm length, 158 g. Made of 7000 series aluminum.

The post would be a 5 star , but it is too small diameter in a 27.2 size.I had heard of Thomson posts creaking in the past, now I wonder if they are slightly undersized?

Given Thomson's reputation , I assumed it was my frame, but an Easton and a Bontrager post fit perfectly with no creaking.

This is a very nice post and it is easy to adjust. It replaces a carbon fiber seat post from my 2009 colnago (that had been cut to approx same length) and it is surprisingly lighter. Also the Colnago-labeled post was very awkward to adjust, but this is very easy.

Improved top tube length, and seat hight . Best seat post ever.

This is the best product in class and at best price I could find.

This seatpost is is simple, light, and awsome. Eazy to adjust and no creaking. Love it!

I've gone through a few seatposts and this takes the cake. It's by far the best looking and well crafted post I've used.

Lighter than most Carbon Fibre models. Easy to install and adjust. Elegant.

I wanted a lighter seat post which also allowed easy adjustment of the seat...this one did the job!

test is out strong and very light ,lighter than my eastern carbon post which had the head mount stripped out because of making of carbon .

only complaint is the fine horizontal grooves or line that runaround the post ,as with all the thomson post still doesn't grip that well when compare to carbon post or sandblasted post like kore.

This post went on my new Parlee Z4 frame.

I have one on another bike too and have found this post to be the absolute best for me. Light, micro adjustable, and bulletproof.

Some things just don't need to be carbon and my seatpost is one of those things.

would def recommend. it much easier to adjust seats with than others around. worth the price

I'm buying my second Thomson Masterpiece to replace the carbon seat post on my second bike. I've used my first Thomson for a year and it has lived up to it's superb reputation in every way. Fits perfectly, micro adjustable, never slips or lets the seat angle change. Beautifully made as well. I only look for the best components and have finally found the best seat post.
