The Thomson Elite seatpost is the standard by which all other seatposts are judged.
Key Features
Over 40% stronger on ultimate strength test than the strongest production seatposts on the market
The tube and head of the Thomson seatpost are integral-machined from one single piece of high strength 7000 series aluminium
The head is not pressed or bonded in - this allows for superior strength and minimum weight, allowing higher strength at low weights
Forged clamps
Integrally machined head
Elliptically extruded 7000 series aluminium body have made the Setback Elite the industry models for strength, light weight and ease of adjustment
Long (41 mm) seat rail grip length - this helps prevent seat rail bending from impact loads. Most other seatposts have grip lengths of 1cm or more shorter than our grip length
Clamp, head, and upper tube strong enough to withstand 350 foot-lbs of torque
Infinite tilt adjustment -5° and +29°
Very low profile clamps means no seat interference as the swivel nuts are down between the seat rails
Impact absorbing clamps clamps, head, and assembly will spread and flex on impact to protect seat, rails, seatpost and rider
Adjustments can be made to the tilt of the seat without moving the seat forwards or backwards
Easy on seats allows seat to survive heavy impact loads without bending rails
