Is there something out there with as much layback as a Thomson but carbon?
Zipp SL speed or an FSA K force

Thomson has 16mm layback and there aren't that many carbon seatposts with 15-16mm layback. From memory the Kinesis is the closest carbon post to 16mm layback but I may be mistaken. Other posts will have 20-25mm layback IIRC.
Why carbon? I have a Thomson Masterpiece (30.9 x 350) tuned to ~150g if weight is an issue?
I bought a chinese carbon post with ritchey super light logo (ok, so it's not ritchey but it was only 38 dollars). Two weeks into using it it's pretty good. Needed a bit of carbon paste to stop the saddle slipping up/down but since putting that on it's been solid. I understand people are wary of chinese carbon copies but I'm quite happy with it. 27.2 and 400mm
Cheers, will take a look at those.
For weight and looks really, it's for a Ti HT, have a dropper at the mo and fancied sitting further back for longer xc rides.Why carbon?
