Date Reviewed: July 18, 2008 | | Favoriate Trail: | Just ride | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Strengths: | looks | | Weaknesses: | Seat clamp, carbon wrap. | | Similar Products Used: | easton ec70, ritchey, thomson elite | | Bike Setup: | superfly, 1X9, xt cranks | | Bottom Line: | The seat clamp must be extremely tightened to hold the seat in place and the carbon wrap has cracked the length of the post. Buy a Thomson Masterpiece for peace of mind and about thirty grams less weight! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: December 20, 2006 | | Favoriate Trail: | Kooralbyn | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Price Paid: |
$45.00 | | Purchased At: | Ebay | | Strengths: | - Simple one bolt clamp design
- Easy to use clamp design
- +/- 20 Degree tilt
- Aluminium core for Extra crushing resistance
- Not difficult to install saddle | | Weaknesses: | - None so far | | Similar Products Used: | - Bontrager Select, Amoeba Scud, FSA SLK270 FR Carbon Post | | Bike Setup: | - Trek 06 6500 with following mods: Manituou R7 Comp 100mm, DT Swiss XR4.1D (XT hubs), Amoeba Scud HB, Pro XLT Race Stem | | Bottom Line: | Great seatpost. Single bolt clamp mechanism makes installing the seatpost a breeze. Single mechanism also makes saddle adjustments easy to use as well.
Aluminium core is definitely crush resistant and carbon construction takes the harshness out of the terrain.
Retails for $150AU but got it for $68AU off ebay. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
