SCHMOLKE seat post TLO Road 10 mm Setback Team Edition 1K finish
The German high-end manufacturer Schmolke stands for its feather-light products which, despite the excessive lightweight construction, are fully roadworthy and suitable for use. TLO doesn't stand for The Lightest One for nothing. Only the best carbon prepregs available on the market are used in this series and the handlebars are specially tailored to the rider's weight. Therefore, the layout of the carbon mats can be adjusted and the weight can be further reduced without compromising on rigidity or durability.
The tube of the TLO seat post is only laminated in the particularly stressed areas from up to 17 layers of thin carbon prepregs. In the stress-free zones, the number can even be reduced to 9 layers. This construction requires a very time-consuming construction, which is not possible with mass-produced products. In addition, there are countless test bench tests to work out the optimal structure for each variant. The head of the post clamps the saddle rails at 8 points. Due to the slight rounding of the aluminum clamping parts and the large carbon contact surface, sensitive carbon saddle frames are not overly stressed. The clamping via 2 titanium screws enables a stepless adjustment of the saddle inclination.
