とてもきれいな工作物です。見てて触りたくなる美しさ。欠点はボルトなどがサビるらしいのでどこだけ対策した商品がでないかなぁ

This post is surprisingly lightweight, considering the robust build. The only (unwelcome) surprise was that the bolts mounting the clamp to the seat rails are ferrous and will rust over time. In addition, the bolts are semi-spherical, as are the washers, making finding a replacement a considerable challenge. Not a deal-breaker for most riders, but considering how close this post is to perfection, it's disappointing that Thompson would overlook this detail. I would have happily paid a few extra dollars for a seat post that could have been perfect.

I picked this seat post because it has zero setback and I do a climb ride every season! Light weight 235 g and looks great

Works perfectly, easily adjust and fine tune your saddle angle. No complaints, would buy again.

Un ottimo articolo, vale i soldi che costa, lavorato al cnc non si presenta liscio al tatto ma questo gli impedisce di bloccarsi e di scivolare verso il basso anche senza serrare troppo.

先日までオフセットを使ってましたが、リーチを短くしたくてこれに入れ替えました。オフセットの方がピラーのしなりを感じますが、乗り心地が良いと感じるか、はずみ過ぎると感じるかは好みですし、車両にも寄ると思います。私はこのストレートの方が好きです。

I've used these for years and years. Maybe not the lightest, but certainly not heavy by any stretch. Might lack the 'wow factor' of carbon, but they are more practical and durable, don't require friction paste--and aren't much heavier. They may look rather plain, too but, after a while, you come to realize that minimalism is the highest aesthetic, and that supreme quality beats everything else, hands-down. Adjustment may be tricky at first (basically one slight twist of one bolt, then another; repeat) but for those who demand the perfect set-up, it couldn't be any other way. A bonus for the effort: every Thomson comes inside a cool little carrying bag. Class.

After receiving mt THOMPSON Elite seatpost I must say I'm a little disappointed with a few details. Whilst certain of it's structural integrity, I find the finish on the clamping end of the device sorely lacking compared to other high end seatposts. Yea, yea, I know "best post in the world", "a gorilla couldn't bend it", "I'm afraid someone's going to steal it" 5 Stars, 5 Stars, 5 Stars, Blah, Blah, Blah. All of the aforementioned is, I'm sure true, but one thing really bothers me, the clamp head LOOKS CHEAP. I know it is fabricated from drop forged pieces, but nothing is finished and polished before painting and it LOOKS like cheap, WAL-MART grade bike, stamped steel. I know it isn't but it LOOKS that way. The actual seat tube is obviously machined from a single piece of aluminum and is beautifully made, but the lack of edge sanding on the clamping pieces is unforgivable on a component of this price range. Add to this the bolts, I'm sure they are high grade, high stress rated bolts and all that, but the plating on them (cadmium or something?) again, makes them LOOK like junk. I'm using the post to mount a SELLE ITALIA Flite saddle and because of it's slender profile and hole in the top, it doesn't hide much of the post. YUCK, very un-elegant to say the least. Look, I'm not a "Bling Junkie" or anything, but for almost $100, I don't think having it pretty and strong is asking too much. I wonder if I sprung for another $50 and bought the "MASTERPIECE" edition if this issue would be better addressed? I know it's made in the good 'ole USA, but I also wonder if a $100 post made in China or Japan would have the same issues?I'll keep this one, but next time I'll try something different...5 STARS for reputation and strength2 STARS for finish and appearance3 STARS overall
