This is one of the only genuine full-carbon posts on test, with the upper and lower clamps made from EMC (an Easton Matrix Composite) and the monocoque quill from CNT, a nano-tech carbon. Also one of the lightest posts on test. It is inline, meaning it lacks any real layback, and the bolt heads are impossible to adjust with a multi-tool. That said it has Relief-Area Design (RAD) flats front and rear for over-clamping protection, which on the front also stop the height decals getting scraped off.
If there’s one company we trust to make durable and strong carbon products it’s Easton, and to back this up the EC90 comes with a five-year warranty.
