Thomson Masterpiece *carbon* seatpost

[neeb]

Anyone have any experience of this?

I assume it will be lighter than the alloy Materpiece if cut to the same length? (It seems to only be available in 350mm, but that makes sense as it's easy to cut to size, allowing the necessary minimum insert of course).

27.2mm version is weighted at 180.4g

27.2mm version is weighted at 180.4g

That's 350mm I think?

The alloy Masterpiece is 161g for the 27.2 250mm, 290g for the 27.2 330mm version (??) Which seems like a massive difference...

But if the carbon 350mm is 180g, I assume it'll be lighter than 161g when cut to 250mm.

Yes, uncut version that is.
Don't remember what my offset alu weight is.
I used it a short while only to try a very forward position. The offset version is great if you want to use it in reverse.
Perhaps it's one of two seatposts you actually can use in reverse!?
