From the BMC website, it is "compliancepost, pure carbon, with TCC." I'm not sure what TCC is actually or if the whole concept of this seatpost is marketing or real. I'm pretty sure it is round, but I'm not home, so I'll have to look at it when I get home. I don't really care if it is matchy-matchy to the bike as long as it is black.
