Sturdy and Well-Built Seat Collar

Familiarity:

I've put it through the wringer

I has issues with my OEM seat collar and wanted to replaced it with a Thomson. Replacing the OEM one was a breeze and Thomson's instructions were a breeze to follow. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because Thomson recommends not exceeding 2.8 NM. I did this and my seat post still moves around on me. If not for my frame being carbon, I'd torque the collar down a little more.

Warning - hex bolt is 3mm, not 4mm

Every other seatpost clamp uses a 4mm hex. Not sure why this one is 3mm

I have used Thompson on a few of my bikes, Surly Cross Check, Wife's Surly Troll and my new TI 29+. Thomson has done nothing but impress, don't think twice upgrade your components.

Much better than any stock clamp

This and the Salsa clamp are both great performers. Broke the factory clamp on my 2016 Cannondale Supersix. Had a Thompson 28.6 clamp in my toolbox. Even though the dia. spec is a little different the Thompson is holding my post just fine. Going to order another as a spare.

Us made brilliance

A seatpost clamp may not be the first thing you may think of to upgrade on your bike, but if you're running a Thomson stem and post, might as well go all out! It comes with a tiny 3mm hex head bolt, but the design of this will keep your post secure.

Great little clamp

Thompson is usually more expensive than their competitors but for good reason. This is a great little seat post clamp. It's clean looking, very light weight and gets the job done.

Thomson....Nuff said

I rock Thomson stems and seat post on all my bikes. This is the first time using their seat collar. As all of their other products it has beautiful craftsmanship. Just can't go any better for performance and price.

It is a seat post clamp. It looks nice, it's light and my post hasn't slipped. About all you can ask for from a clamp.

Solid Clamp

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I'm amazed at the low torque needed to get such a solid hold. I'm guessing this will lessen the chances of ever having to replace it. The last clamp I had popped at 5nm torque. The threads pulled out of the clamp body. This Thomson clamp specs only 2.8nm torque, and it is holding really strong! This is a great seatpost clamp!

I swapped my factory clamp for this. It really cleaned up my bike and the quality is unbeatable. Great product!

Seat collars are simple and only have one job-keep your post from slipping. It is surprising how often something as simple as a seat collar is done badly. Either the collars don't keep the post in place or the collar itself is susceptible to breakage. The Thomson collar will not let you down. It is light, it is dependable and elegant. I would say that this simple collar design and finish boards on usable art. Upgrade your bike now!

Clean and good looking

Got this to replace one that came on the bike. This one looks good on the bike and feels solid. You can 't go wrong with this.

is the measurement referring to the inside diameter? my bike seat tube is 31.8 internally so the seat post clamp should be the larger diameter?

That added bling

Thomson Post?-Check Thomson Stem? Check Thomson Bars?-(YEP they make bars!) Check Thomson Seat Collar?- NO?!?! What is this, amateur hour? Add that added bit of bling, you know you want to, your bike will thank you.

Solid piece, set it and forget it

Would have given this a 5 if it was a little lighter or a little more economical. Lets be honest, the only reason 95% of us upgrade from stock is to save weight or add bling. This part is anti-bling but lighter than your average QR factory clamp, but I replaced it on my latest build with a titanium unit weighing 10g that was half the price, so.....

I need a clamp for a 63CM Serotta (road bike) w/ a Ti frame - 31.8. I’m using a Thompson 30.9 seatpost, will this fit the fame and clamp down the post? Is there a return policy?
