Thomson Seatpost 31.6 x 410mm Black

The most requested swap on new bikes here is "Can you replace that with a Thomson?"  More $6,000 crazy carbon bikes that we sell end up leaving with a Thomson seatpost than any other brand. The clamp is indisputably the nicest available, and the weight is comparable with the lightest carbon posts money can buy. If you are racing mtb or 'cross and can't be worrying about whether or not your saddle is going to move when you hop back on, then you need the peace of mind you'll get with a Thomson. Thomson's are also significantly easier on your saddles. They feature a 1.6 inch long contact point vs. most brands ~.5 inch which helps to prevent any bending of the rails upon impact. Speaking of impact, Thomson's are made to bend, not break in a crash scenario so as long as you're able to ride, your seatpost will be too. 

Don't just take our word for it though, check out the Thomson website, they have a wealth of knowledge and testing that is certainly worth looking into, and for weights and sizes offered (we can get any size they make, so if you need something we don't have listed, just shoot us an email) check out their spec page.
