I've gone through a few seatposts and this takes the cake. It's by far the best looking and well crafted post I've used.

Lighter than most Carbon Fibre models. Easy to install and adjust. Elegant.
Review by Davesd
I wanted a lighter seat post which also allowed easy adjustment of the seat...this one did the job!
Review by bikeonx
test is out strong and very light ,lighter than my eastern carbon post which had the head mount stripped out because of making of carbon .
only complaint is the fine horizontal grooves or line that runaround the post ,as with all the thomson post still doesn't grip that well when compare to carbon post or sandblasted post like kore.

This post went on my new Parlee Z4 frame.
I have one on another bike too and have found this post to be the absolute best for me. Light, micro adjustable, and bulletproof.
Some things just don't need to be carbon and my seatpost is one of those things.

Review by bikecrazy
I'm buying my second Thomson Masterpiece to replace the carbon seat post on my second bike. I've used my first Thomson for a year and it has lived up to it's superb reputation in every way. Fits perfectly, micro adjustable, never slips or lets the seat angle change. Beautifully made as well. I only look for the best components and have finally found the best seat post.

You just can't go wrong with a Thomson stem. These are just incredibly well made with a design that is a snap to adjust. The bolts in the front and back are easy to get to any allow unlimited flexibility in adjusting angle. The clamp holds the rails well with no slipping and no creaking.
It might be possible to save a few grams by using a crazy light carbon post, but at under 160 grams, the Thomson is pretty hard to beat.

What more good can I say about Thomson that hasnt already been said. Awesome products, excellent customer service and a warranty that kicks butt. The Masterpiece is one step up from the Elite and you can feel the difference in the scales. If youre a weight weenie like me then go for the Masterpiece. Gets no better!

I needed a no setback post to get my fit just right and this one is the best. It's Thomson what more can I say?
Review by bbcross
I needed some setback and this posted met my needs. I was worried the ride would be too harsh but its actually just fine. Since it was heavier than advertised, around 200 grams, Im not sure its worth getting the Masterpiece version.

Pros very light, super high quality, and the machined in ridges keep the post from slipping
Cons more shock transmission than a carbon post and in cyclocross my seat rails slip a bit in the post.

Review by John Martin
This aluminum seat post is precision machined and beautifully made. The set back feature allows better seat placement.
Review by S Jeffery
This seat post has it all. Super light weight, solid as a rock, easy on the eyes, and American made.
The only draw back I can see it is a little more difficult to attach the saddle than most one bolt systems.
If you're looking for a professional level post, this is the one for you.
