The Masterpiece is over 40% stronger on ultimate strength tests than the strongest production seatposts on the market. Masterpiece posts weigh approximately 40g less than the same size Elite post. This weight reduction is accomplished while maintaining the strength and durability expected of a Thomson seatpost. Thomson accomplishes this weight reduction by machining the seatpost all over, including the oval inner diameter. It is able to hold closer tolerances by machining than by extrusion alone. Machining over an already beautiful design makes the Masterpiece Seatpost a work of art.Machined 7000 series Aluminium41mm seat rail grip lengthTilt adjustment from -5° to +29°Low profile clampsAvailable in 27.2mm, 30.9mm and 31.6mm diametersCertified to: EN 14766 2006 MTBThe tube and head of the Thomson Masterpiece seatpost is integral machined from one piece of high strength 7000 series aluminium. The head is not pressed or bonded in, allowing for superior strength and minimum weight. We have a long 1.614 inch (41mm) seat rail grip length. This helps prevent seat rail bending from impact loads. Most other seatposts have grip lengths of at least 0.5 inches shorter than our grip length.The Thomson Masterpiece seatpost design incorporates a bending fuse to prevent catastrophic failure. All competitive seatposts we tested failed catastrophically with the seat and clamp components, sometimes pieces of the tube and head flew off in all directions.The Thomson Masterpiece seatpost has a clamp, head, and upper tube strong enough to withstand 325 foot-lbs of torque. The tube will start to yield and bend at the seat tube clamp at about 230 foot-lbs of torque. Under severe impact the Thomson Masterpiece seatpost will bend slightly but allow the rider to come to a stop or continue the ride.The Masterpiece seatpost has all parts captive and can easily be attached to a seat without dis-assembly. Very low profile clamps means no seat interference as the swivel nuts are down between the seat rails. The designs and materials have passed extensive life and ultimate strength tests. Our ongoing testing program ensures that every production lot of seatposts meets Thomson standards.

Building on the success of the Ascend 01, Brand- X now offer a longer travel option. The additional travel is ideal for long legged riders or for those who need more adjustment. The post carries over the reliability and core qualities of the Ascend 01. Infinitely smoove adjustment and incredible value for money makes the Ascend XL the trend setter amongst the dropper post market. The Ascend Seatpost is only compatible with bikes that can use an internally routed dropper. (Please note that it cannot be converted to external cable actuated.)The seatpost is cable actuated at the bottom of the post via a linkage mechanism which eliminates cable pull/movement, to ensure consistent performance time and time again. The ergonomic shifter style remote lever is designed to be run where your front shifter would normally sit. This means that the Ascend Dropper is ideally suited for those using a 1x chain ring set up; without a front derailleur. However, a paddle style shifter is available aftermarket for those who want to use the Ascend dropper post with a front derailleur and shifter. The Ascend Dropper seatpost sets new standards for reliability and performance at a fantastic price point.
