Thomson is an engineering company first and foremost. They don't make hundreds of widgets and aluminum thingamys - they concentrate on stems and seatposts and do them very well.
But they are also passionate about cycling and much of their R&D is done on the trail, so they know what is required to make a strong component that will stand the test of time. These American designed and manufactured bike parts don't just look good they are good and, as many bike magazines and manufacturers have realized, Thomson is second to none.
A good quality seat post will save weight and hold your saddle securely. Seatposts are made in various materials, alloy and carbon being the two most common, alloy posts are lightweight, durable and cost efficient, while carbon posts are the popular choice for top end machines. Seat posts vary in where they hold the saddle relative to their own center line so make sure you have enough adjustment on your saddle rails to allow for this or you could end up with your saddle too far forwards. A seat post needs to fit your frame exactly and are measured by as little as 0.2mm. When choosing a new one, either read off the measurement from your old seat post or measure it carefully with a vernier caliper. Make sure you lubricate the frame (unless they're carbon fiber) before insertion or you'll struggle to get it out again.
