Thomson of Macon, GA has a few new tricks up their sleeve for 2013. At the trade shows this year they were showing off their new handlebars and Elite Dropper seatpost. The handlebars will be available in aluminum, titanium, and carbon. Models for both cross country and all mountain riding as well as downhill will be available. The handlebars will be the first product Thomson has not actually made themselves due to costs to manufacture and heat treat. The Elite Dropper seatpost will be available in the Spring of 2013 and offer 5″ of adjustable travel.
