Hope Carbon Seatpost
| Brand | Hope |
|---|
The Hope Carbon Seatpost is supremely lightweight and strong, and is a great upgrade for any XC, DH or Road bike. Composed of 24 individual plies of carbon which are pre-impregnated with epoxy resin to give a tough, rugged unit which can handle the demands of downhill riding.
The bulk of the laminate comprises Unidirectional T700 fibre - the highest strength Standard Modulus fibre available. (Unidirectional fibres provide the maximum tensile strength and stiffness with minimum weight). This is combined with strategically positioned plies of 3K twill woven fabric, adding hoop strength to resist clamping forces and mitigating failure mode in the event of serious crash damage. The 1K 2x2 twill weave fabric outer ply, also contributes in this respect together with a super smooth finish and striking visual aesthetic.
