Thomson s new 35mm x 800mm wide bar comes in 3 rise options: a centre rise 10mm, 20mm, or 35mm rise options. All 35mm bars feature a 9° back sweep and 5° upsweep. They re built using 7050 Aluminium alloy for strength and longevity.Centre Rise: 10mm, 20mm and 25mmBack sweep: 9 degreesUpsweep: 5 degrees7050 AluminiumButted & tapered for optimal fatigue lifeAdvanced Hydraulic Press formingThe Elite 35mm Handlebars are butted and tapered in many steps for optimal fatigue life. Unlike most companies, Thomson produced our bars by using advanced hydraulic press forming to ensure close tolerances, precise wall thicknesses and a smooth appearance in the bends and tapered sections. Together with a 35mm Thomson X4 stem, it s the best Aluminium cockpit in the industry.
The stem that is strong enough for freestyle and light enough to race. 6 bolts up front to hold your bars no matter what.Reach: 50mmCan be flipped and run upside downWide Clamp - For Less Stress on your BarsCNC Machined from 7000 Series AluminumNew six bolt clamp
The Thomson Elite DH bar is 800mm wide with 20mm of rise, 9° of back sweep, and 5° of upsweep. It s built using 7050 Aluminium alloy for strength and long life. 65mm wide clamping area fits our Direct Mount stem, giving you the most torsional stiffness of any bar/stem combination. 31.8 centre section is absolutely straight over a width of 90mm. The long straight section in the middle reduces stress concentrations, especially when using wide Direct Mount stems.800mm width / 31.8mm7050 Aluminium AlloyLong, straight middle sectionThickened ends from 1.4mm to 1.6mmDeveloped by Hydraulic Press FormingLow weight, high fatigue lifePerfect with Thomson Elite X4 or Direct Mount StemsWeight 325gBars are butted and tapered in many steps for optimal fatigue life. Ends of the bar are thickened from 1.4 to 1.6mm to resist damage from impacts and contact with the ground. Bars are produced by advanced Hydraulic Press Forming to avoid the need for hand grinding. Almost all other bars are manually bent, and bends are ground to appear smooth. Hydraulic Press Forming ensures very consistent wall thickness and close tolerances, especially in tapered sections. This keeps weight low and fatigue life high. Together with a Thomson stem, this is the best Aluminium cockpit you can get. It s the perfect addition to your Elite X4 Stem or Direct Mount Stem.
New in 2012 for Thomson the Direct Mount Stem allows riders the ultimate in stiffness for dual crown cockpits. The strongest stem we make, which means it’s the strongest stem you can get. Built for the Boxxer and any fork using the Boxxer bolt patternMotorcycle Style, Thomson Strength and attention to detail. Light weight and a dropped bar position. The 50mm Direct Mount puts the handlebar 10mm lower than a standard stem, and lower than an adjustable direct mount design as well. Our 40mm Direct Mount has a 30 degree rise. The crown in the picture is for display purposes and is not included with the stem
The Thomson Elite Direct Mount Stems fit forks from RockShox, Fox, Manitou and Marzocchi (2012 or newer). Three sizes are available for 31.8mm handlebars: the 40/50mm Direct Mount Drop Stem puts the handlebar 10mm lower than a standard stem and lower than an adjustable direct mount design. Thomson also offers a 50mm Direct Mount Stems with 30 degrees of rise. 65mm handlebar clamp width creates maximum torsional stiffness, which translates into better steering precision.

The Thomson Elite seatpost is over 40% stronger on ultimate strength tests than the strongest production seatposts on the market. The Elite has double the fatigue life of any other production models tested. The tube and head of the Thomson seatpost are integral machined from one piece of high strength 7000 series Aluminium. The head is not pressed or bonded in. This allows for superior strength and minimum weight.7000 series Aluminium41mm Seat Rail grip lengthAvailable in 250mm, 330mm, 367mm and 410mm lengthsAvailable in all seatpost sizes-5° to +29° Tilt adjustment228g weight (330mm length)Certified to: EN 14766 2006 MTB and DIN CERTCO: 2006 MTBIt s incredibly lightweight, approximately 201g (250mm length) for road bikes and 228g (330mm length) for mountain bikes. The natural ellipse bore inside tube creates an optimum strength-to-weight ratio.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 inch shorter than our grip length.The Thomson seatpost design incorporates a bending fuse to prevent catastrophic failure. All competitive seatposts tested, failed catastrophically with the seat and clamp components, sometimes pieces of the tube and head flew off in all directions.The Thomson seatpost has a clamp, head and upper tube strong enough to withstand 350 foot-lbs of torque. The tube will start to yield and bend at the seat tube clamp at about 250 foot-lbs of torque. Under severe impact the Thomson seatpost will bend slightly and allow the rider to come to a safe stop or finish the ride. The Thomson seatpost has all parts captive and can easily be attached to a seat without dis-assembly.Infinite tilt adjustment minus 5° and plus 29°. Very low profile clamps mean 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. Impact absorbing clamps in the seatpost will spread and flex on impact to protect seat, rails, and rider. The seats survive heavy impact loads without bending the rails.
