I use almost nothing else when it comes to stems and seatposts. So having a brand I trust producing these components in a special color to celebrate our 20th anniversary is seriously a huge deal!<\/p>\n<p>We were lucky enough to get our hands on them a little early, so I installed them on my Falconer gravel bike.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"*FALCONER CYCLES* gravel\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bluelug\/55442072789\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/55442072789_c716462d0c_b.jpg\" alt=\"*FALCONER CYCLES* gravel\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a><script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"*FALCONER CYCLES* gravel\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bluelug\/55442024633\/in\/photolist-2ste7EH-2stdSjH-2stdSnt-2stdfMU-2stfg6e-2stdSm6-2stdSmr-2st8hv9-2stdSnP-2ste7Gg-2stdfHv-2stfgdd-2ste7JA-2st8hAK-2st8hyk-2stdfNk-2stfgi8-2stdfDs-2stdSz7-2stdSxy-2ste7NU-2stdfKz-2st8hAu-2stdfFM-2stdSzs-2st8hEs-2stdfDT-2stdfMd-2st8hDL-2st8hsD-2stfg4a-2ste7Uf-2stfgmu-2st8hFV-2stdfNR-2ste7Nt-2stdSzY-2st8hC3-2stdfxL-2stfga7-2stdfy2\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/55442024633_b627814546_b.jpg\" alt=\"*FALCONER CYCLES* gravel\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/><\/a><script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>100mm length with a 10\u00b0 angle stem installed in the negative position. Since the frame has a relatively long head tube, flipping the stem helps bring the riding position lower. Besides, a stem that sits almost parallel to the ground just looks racier and cooler!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"*FALCONER CYCLES* gravel\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bluelug\/55441905006\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/55441905006_6fc41605ec_b.jpg\" alt=\"*FALCONER CYCLES* gravel\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" \/><\/a><script src=\"\/\/embedr.flickr.com\/assets\/client-code.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-180884\" src=\"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5083.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1664\" height=\"1664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5083.jpg 1664w, https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5083-1280x1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5083-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1664px) 100vw, 1664px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-180885\" src=\"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5084.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1664\" height=\"1664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5084.jpg 1664w, https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5084-1280x1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_5084-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1664px) 100vw, 1664px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The seatpost is a 27.2mm \u00d7 250mm Elite Seatpost.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The zero-offset Elite Seatpost is available in two lengths, 250mm and 330mm, but only in the 27.2mm diameter. The logo placement also differs slightly between the two.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">On the 250mm version, it measures approximately 19cm from the saddle rails to the \u201cMAX&#8221; line. If you\u2019re using a sloping frame such as an MTB and need more seatpost exposed than that, go with the 330mm version. If you need less, the 250mm version should be just right.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Cerakote is an extremely thin coating with excellent resistance to wear and corrosion. I\u2019ve been using these components on my commuter bike too, and so far there are no signs of chipping or scratching. So feel free to put them through heavy use everyday, or keep them pristine as collector\u2019s items!<\/p>\n<p>This is a one-time-only special edition from Thomson, so don\u2019t miss your chance to grab one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26,"featured_media":180886,"template":"","better_featured_image":{"id":180886,"alt_text":"","caption":"","description":"","media_type":"image","media_details":{"width":799,"height":533,"file":"2026\/08\/55442024633_b627814546_c.jpg","filesize":65886,"sizes":{"thumbnail":{"file":"55442024633_b627814546_c-768x512.jpg","width":768,"height":512,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":25017,"source_url":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/55442024633_b627814546_c-768x512.jpg"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0","keywords":[]}},"post":180883,"source_url":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/55442024633_b627814546_c.jpg"},"acf":{"not_to_displayed_on_top":true,"ctm-post-priority":"0"},"post-meta-fields":{"_edit_lock":["1787531126:48"],"_edit_last":["48"],"_thumbnail_id":["180886"],"not_to_displayed_on_top":["1"],"_not_to_displayed_on_top":["field_6944f0f6461a3"],"ctm-post-priority":["0"],"_ctm-post-priority":["field_6522836fa8f5e"],"pp_checklist_custom_item_jlhhonippgapjyw":["yes"],"_my_meta_value_key":["[{\"pid\":52038,\"name\":\"*THOMSON\u00d7BLUE LUG* elite seatpost BL20th\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/thomson-blue-lug-elite-seatpost-bl20th.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/_\/d\/_dsc3401.jpg\",\"selected\":true},{\"pid\":52039,\"name\":\"*THOMSON\u00d7BLUE LUG* seat clamp BL20th\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/thomson-blue-lug-seat-clamp-bl20th.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/_\/d\/_dsc3429.jpg\",\"selected\":true},{\"pid\":52041,\"name\":\"*THOMSON\u00d7BLUE LUG* elite X4 BL20th (0\u00b0)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/thomson-blue-lug-elite-x4-bl20th-0.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/_\/d\/_dsc3454.jpg\"},{\"pid\":52040,\"name\":\"*THOMSON\u00d7BLUE LUG* elite X4 BL20th (10\u00b0)\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/thomson-blue-lug-elite-x4-bl20th-10.html\",\"src\":\"https:\/\/global.tsubasa-jp.pro\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/3523710a6209bf43bdc4af034e5e9b62\/_\/d\/_dsc3449.jpg\"}]"]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review-global\/181099"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review-global"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/review-global"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/26"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/180886"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tsubasa-jp.pro\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181099"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
