Thomson's Elite Seat Post re-wrote the standards for strength and lightweight!

The Facts

1. Over 40% stronger on ultimate strength test than the strongest production seatposts on the market.
2. Over double the fatigue life of any other production models tested. The tube and head of the Thomson seatpost are integral-machined from one single piece of high strength 7000 series aluminum. The head is not pressed or bonded in. This allows for superior strength and minimum weight, allowing higher strength at low weights.
3. Natural ellipse bore inside tube for optimum strength to weight ratio.
4. Extra long 41mm rail clamping surface ensures a secure connection to you seat.
   
5. Easy on seats - allows seat to survive heavy impact loads without bending rails.
   
6. Very low profile clamps - no seat interference - swivel nuts are down between the seat rails.
7. Extruded and machined one-piece pillar/lower cradle-not bonded like other designs!
   
8. The Thomson seatpost design incorporates a bending fuse to prevent catostrophic failure.
9. Every component of the Thomson seatpost is 100 percent American made. This includes all fasteners and forgings.
10. Infinite tilt adjustment minus 5° and plus 29°.
11. Impact absorbing clamps - clamps, head, and assembly will spread and flex on impact to protect seat, rails, seatpost and rider.
12. Adjustments can be made to the tilt of the seat without moving the seat forwards or backwards.
