Dropper Publish Comparability Desk

How We Examined

It’s honest to say that the workforce at Bikerumor is obsessive about all issues bike-related. That is very true of merchandise like dropper posts that improve our using expertise and efficiency out on the path.

Whereas there have been some reservations about adopting this new-fangled expertise once they initially got here out, you’ll discover droppers on just about all of our mountain bikes and even a few of our gravel bikes as of late. And, we’ve tried a number of them. Whether or not for product launches, particular person evaluations, or testing on bikes, we’ve had the chance to attempt almost each mannequin in the marketplace.

Our Skilled Testers

For the needs of this purchaser’s information, we rounded up ten of the most effective dropper posts obtainable to check and evaluate side-by-side. Assessment writer, Paul Clauss, spent months testing these posts in a variety of climate situations on technical northern Vermont trails that require plenty of elevating and decreasing of the saddle.

A mechanical engineer by commerce and a talented bike mechanic, Paul enjoys scrutinizing totally different designs, tinkering with changes, and is adept at differentiating delicate efficiency variations within the workshop and out on the path.

Paul has an affinity for technical options and rock slabs, and happily, the terrain close to his house in northern Vermont is a perfect testing floor for dropper posts with loads of ups, downs, and rocky, rooty challenges that require frequent modifications to saddle top. Along with testing dropper posts, Paul has additionally contributed to our guides on the most effective mountain bike jackets and finest bike locks.

Bikerumor Editor Jeremy Benson additionally contributed to this information. Benson has been testing and reviewing bikes, equipment, and elements for 8+ years and has personally examined greater than fifteen totally different dropper posts. As an obsessive rider and racer, he’s at all times looking for out the highest-performance merchandise he can discover and appreciates elements that tangibly enhance his trip expertise.

He’s additionally skilled the evolution of dropper posts firsthand and acknowledges that just about each dropper in the marketplace is significantly better than any choices we had a decade in the past. Among the different guides that Benson has contributed to incorporate hitch bike racks, biking sun shades, and bike locks.

Our Testing Course of

After weighing every publish and distant for consistency and comparability to the producer’s specs, Paul and Jeremy put in them on one in all their a number of mountain bikes. Putting in every publish ourselves gave us the chance to evaluate the relative problem of doing it on our personal, and offered useful perception into the saddle clamps and distant levers. It additionally gave us the chance to evaluate fitment-related considerations when putting in — together with choosing the proper measurement to start with.

As soon as every publish was put in, we carried out quite a few hand assessments within the workshop to match the smoothness of journey and return speeds. We made any obligatory changes after which took to the paths. On the path, Paul and Jeremy each centered on key efficiency attributes like actuation pressure on the lever, compression pressure, return velocity, and smoothness whereas making frequent changes to saddle top.

From the technical trails of Vermont to the tough and dusty trails of the Lake Tahoe area, these posts had been ridden arduous to find out their relative strengths and weaknesses. Paul and Jeremy additionally switched between posts typically for extra direct comparability of their efforts to search out the most effective dropper posts.

Shopping for Recommendation: Select a Dropper Publish

From light-weight cross-country race bikes to long-travel eMTBs, almost each fashionable mountain bike comes with a dropper publish. There are quite a few causes to make use of a dropper publish in your mountain bike, however it may be tough to search out precisely what you want. Right here we’ll break down a number of the necessary concerns that will affect your buy determination.

Why Experience With a Dropper Publish?

Utilizing a dropper publish will help you increase and decrease your seat with the contact of a handlebar-mounted lever. When your saddle is on the acceptable top for pedaling and climbing, it could get in the way in which when making an attempt to maneuver your physique and bike whereas descending. However when your saddle top is ready low for descending, it’s not within the correct pedaling place.

Dropper posts help you alter your saddle top on the fly whereas using, making certain you may have the right seat top for the terrain you encounter. With a dropper publish, you’ll expertise:

1. Improved maneuverability: A dropper publish means that you can decrease your seat when descending steep or technical terrain, creating extra clearance between you and your saddle, making it simpler to shift your physique and maneuver the bike. That is notably useful for bike/physique separation when cornering and when leaping. 
2. Higher effectivity: At full extension, your saddle needs to be within the superb place for seated pedaling so you may at all times benefit from your pedaling effort.
3. Extra comfy using: A dropper publish means that you can alter your seat top based mostly on the terrain, making for a extra comfy trip general. Exterior of decreasing the publish for descending, this may be necessary on technical climbs – typically having solely 20mm or so of drop may help you place down the ability and push up a troublesome transfer. 

Dimension a Dropper Publish for You and Your Bike

When buying a brand new dropper publish, the match for you and your bike is your first precedence. Not solely does it want to suit your body to be suitable, however you need it to fit your physique measurement and desires as properly.

Seat Tube Diameter

This is without doubt one of the best steps – simply ensure you choose a publish that matches the seat tube diameter of your body. Most fashionable mountain bikes have 30.9mm or 31.6mm seat tubes, and dropper publish producers typically present choices for much less normal diameters like 27.2mm (for gravel and a few XC frames) or 34.9mm diameters.

In case you are uncertain of your seat tube diameter, you may usually discover it printed on the seat publish that’s presently in your bike, or you may look it up on the producer’s web site. When you ought to have the ability to discover a publish that matches your seat tube diameter, you may typically buy a smaller one and shim the seat tube in a pinch.

Dropper Journey Size

Dropper posts can be found in a spread of journey lengths to swimsuit various wants, preferences, physique varieties, and bikes. For mountain bikes, the standard vary is between 100 and 200mm, with some outliers on both finish. For instance, the OneUp Elements V3 Dropper is out there in a variety of sizes, with 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, and 240mm journey lengths. Not surprisingly, as post-travel will increase, so does the general size, insertion depth, and weight of the publish.

Whereas many individuals attempt to match essentially the most drop attainable on their bike to extend mobility, some riders could choose a shorter drop size for varied causes. How a lot journey you need is normally a matter of non-public desire, however it’s also typically a perform of what is going to suit your body and work on your physique measurement.

Luckily, some manufacturers are doing their finest to attenuate the general lengths and stack heights of their posts, which makes it simpler to suit an extended journey dropper. Moreover, some manufacturers present the choice to cut back journey with changes, making fitment a lot simpler than it was. On the identical time, many fashionable bikes are being designed with decrease stand-over heights and shorter/straighter seat tubes that assist make becoming longer journey droppers simpler.

Figuring out If a Dropper Will Match Your Body

Most producers’ web sites have a device that will help you appropriately measurement a publish on your bike to maximise journey (and the OneUp web site will even present you which of them competitor’s posts will match with their Dropper Publish Size Selector). To make use of these instruments, you’ll take two measurements out of your body and think about a couple of publish measurements:

• X – your Measured Experience Top, from the highest of your seat collar to the middle of your seat rails (not the highest of your saddle). For instance, on the small Santa Cruz Bronson used for testing, that is 260mm.
• Y – the utmost seat tube insertion size on your body. On the small Bronson, that is 210mm.

With these numbers, use the instruments obtainable on most producers’ web sites to find out the utmost journey for his or her publish in your body. To double-check if a dropper publish will match by yourself, ensure that:

1. Your Measured Experience Top (X) is GREATER than the Stack Top (prolonged) of the publish, measured from the underside of the collar to the middle of the seat rails of the seat at full extension.
   1. On the Bronson check bike, the Measured Seat Top of 260mm is bigger than the 150mm Journey PNW Loam publish’s Stack Top of 200mm. This implies the publish may be positioned at the popular top, assuming the opposite two measurements under are true.
2. The Total Size minus your Measured Experience Top (X) is LESS than the utmost seat tube insertion size on your body (Y).
   1. For the PNW Loam publish at 150mm journey, the Total Size is 440mm. 440 – 260 = 180mm, which is the size of the publish I anticipate to be within the seat tube at full seat top. That is lower than the measured seat tube insertion of 210mm, leaving 30mm of clearance on the backside of my seat tube with the publish on the measured seat top.
3. The Insertion Size (from #2) falls between the minimal and most insertion lengths of the publish. The insertion size should be between the utmost/minimal insertion lengths for the publish.
   1. Minimal insertion of 90mm is lower than 180mm (from #2, the anticipated insertion size with the publish), which is lower than 210mm (the utmost insertion depth). On the anticipated insertion on the Bronson body, the insertion size falls between and most and minimal insertion lengths of the publish.

Varieties of Dropper Posts

Most dropper posts obtainable at the moment make the most of a cable to actuate an inside floating piston (IFP), which releases a pressurized chamber, usually an adjustable air spring or a sealed hydraulic cartridge, to boost and decrease the seat. Whereas all of them carry out the identical process of elevating and decreasing your seat on the fly, dropper posts are available in a wide range of totally different designs.

Adjustable vs Mounted Price of Return

Many dropper posts have an adjustable fee of return. Usually, this entails an air spring, the stress of which may be adjusted (inside a really useful vary) to hurry up or decelerate the speed at which the publish compresses and extends. This provides the consumer better management over their publish and the flexibility to dial in its efficiency to fulfill their wants or preferences. The Bike Yoke Revive 3.0, Divine SL, Wolf Tooth Resolve Rev2, Fox Switch Manufacturing facility, and the PNW Loam all function adjustable air springs.

Some posts use sealed cartridges which have a hard and fast fee of compression and extension. These posts have a predetermined spring fee chosen by the producer that normally goals to hit the completely satisfied center floor of compression pressure/return velocity. The OneUp V3 and Crankbrothers Highline 7 are two examples of droppers that would not have adjustable air springs.

Infinitely Adjustable vs Mounted Interval Journey

The overwhelming majority of dropper posts function what is named infinitely adjustable journey, that means they are often adjusted anyplace throughout the obtainable journey vary, from full compression to full extension. Whereas it’s most typical to trip with the publish all the way in which up or all the way in which down, there are many circumstances the place dropping the publish just a bit bit is extra superb, and infinitely adjustable posts permit you to take action.

Just a few posts in the marketplace have fastened interval journey, that means they cease solely at sure spots inside their journey vary. Usually, this type of publish makes use of a less complicated mechanical spring to regulate the journey. The one publish we examined that adjusts at fastened intervals is the light-weight Fox Switch SL, which stops in solely two positions, absolutely compressed and absolutely prolonged.

Inside vs Exterior Routing

Most fashionable mountain bikes are designed for use with dropper posts and normally function inside cable routing. Consequently, most droppers are additionally designed for use with bikes which have inside cable routing. The actuator the place the cable connects is on the backside of the publish contained in the body. The entire droppers we examined are made for inside cable routing, apart from the RockShox Reverb AXS and the Fox Switch Neo, that are wi-fi.

Many older bike frames and a few gravel bikes would not have ports for inside cable routing. Fortunately, there are some externally routed droppers in the marketplace, although they’re much less widespread. PNW elements make a number of fashions of externally routed droppers, and you’ll typically discover related choices from Model-X and PRO in case you go searching.

Actuation Types

Cable-Actuated

The vast majority of fashionable dropper posts are cable-actuated, that means {that a} cable connects between the distant lever and an actuator on the backside of the publish. While you press the distant lever, it pulls on the cable, which in flip actuates the publish and permits it to maneuver up or down. Cables are comparatively straightforward to take care of and cheap to switch.

Hydraulically Actuated

This type of actuation is much less widespread than cable-actuated posts, but it surely operates in an analogous method, using hydraulic fluid. The RockShox Reverb (not AXS) is the one publish in the marketplace that makes use of this technique, and it really works pretty properly. The primary disadvantage is that it’s tougher to put in and take away your publish, given the presence of hydraulic fluid within the hose and distant lever, and it may be fairly messy. Older fashions had been additionally fairly delicate to chilly temperatures.

Wi-fi/Electrical

Given the speedy tempo of technological growth, it comes as little shock that increasingly more merchandise are digital. Wi-fi or digital posts forego the cable and housing altogether and as an alternative use a wi-fi sign that transmits between a handlebar-mounted distant and a small motor on the publish to boost and decrease it.

The RockShox Reverb AXS was the primary wi-fi publish to actually achieve a foothold out there. It was launched in 2019, and with no critical competitors, it rapidly grew to become the benchmark. It took Fox some time to enter the wi-fi dropper market, however the model lastly launched the Switch Neo in 2024. We lately examined the wi-fi Fox dropper and consider it has set a brand new normal for ease of use, actuation velocity, and general efficiency. In 2025, RockShox lastly up to date the Reverb AXS, addressing most of its shortcomings — together with including journey lengths as much as 250mm.

Dropper Options

Journey Discount

Some posts help you lower the utmost publish journey, making certain you may get the utmost drop obtainable on your bike. For instance, on the bike used for testing, with a stack top of 260mm and a most seat tube insertion of 210mm, the OneUp measurement calculator signifies a most drop for my setup of 170mm, achieved by lowering the journey of their 180mm publish by 10mm.

The PNW Loam Dropper incorporates a tool-free system that permits for reducing the utmost journey by as much as 25mm (in 5mm increments) with a built-in nylon shim. The OneUp V3 Dropper employs an analogous system, however limits journey adjustment to 10 or 20mm, using pins and information slots as an alternative of a nylon shim. The Bike Yoke Revive 3.0 additionally permits for as much as 20mm of journey adjustment, however a set of 4 5mm shims should be bought individually, and the publish should be faraway from the bike for set up.

Equally, the Wolf Tooth Resolve Rev2 can have its most journey decreased, and they’re going to set up spacers for you while you order the publish. Alternatively, you should purchase journey discount shims after the actual fact and set up them your self, or carry it to a store to have it executed for you.

Reset Valves

All hydraulic dropper posts can expertise air ingestion into the interior tubes over time, leading to a saggy or spongy really feel when sitting on the saddle. To fight this with out requiring a full rebuild of the publish, the Bike Yoke Revive 3.0 makes use of a reset valve. Whereas Bike Yoke solely expects Revive customers to make use of the reset valve a few times a 12 months, it is a good function to make sure constant efficiency of the publish while not having to drag it out of your body.

Different posts, just like the Wolf Tooth Resolve and the Bike Yoke Divine SL, have “self-bleeding” cartridges designed to purge any air from the system each time the publish is absolutely dropped.

Saddle Clamp

The saddle clamp on the seatpost head is the place your saddle rails connect to the seatpost. Good saddle clamps are quiet, keep on the acceptable torque, and make saddle set up/removing moderately straightforward. A lot of the posts on this information use a regular two-bolt head design to regulate saddle angle and fore/aft place. Just a few fashions have clamp designs that assist make the set up and removing course of barely simpler.

The Crankbrothers Highline 7 has {hardware} that swivels, whereas the OneUp V3 dropper has slotted plates. Although we don’t usually set up/take away our saddles often, these seemingly trivial design options are actually fairly useful when testing dropper posts again to again. 

Distant Levers

Each dropper publish makes use of a distant to actuate the journey up and down. Whereas many posts used to come back with a lever, most posts are offered with out one as of late, that means you may normally select no matter distant you want. Most levers for cable-actuated dropper posts (that clamp the free cable finish on the lever) are suitable with any publish, permitting you to decide on the lever that works finest along with your ergonomics and cockpit setup. The exception to this rule is the wi-fi droppers, which require their very own digital management unit. For many of those posts on this evaluation, we examined them with their model’s respective distant levers to get a really feel for the way they work collectively.

The appearance and proliferation of 1x drivetrains freed up some area on the left facet of the handlebar the place the entrance derailleur shifter was, so nearly all of dropper remotes are 1x levers that resemble a shifter paddle that you just press along with your left thumb. Examples of 1x distant levers embrace the Wolf Tooth Distant Professional, Fox Switch 1x Distant, Bike Yoke Triggy Alpha, PNW Loam Lever, and OneUp V3 Lever. Many have textured steel surfaces to supply traction for the thumb, whereas some now use replaceable rubber pads for grip.

Some manufacturers nonetheless make distant levers which are designed for use with 2x drivetrains and/or suspension lockout levers, and drop-bar levers have gotten extra widespread as droppers achieve recognition on gravel bikes.

Like another handlebar-mounted management, it is very important think about ergonomics, lever really feel, and actuation pressure when choosing a dropper publish lever. Whereas most lever producers do present choices for Shimano i-Spec or SRAM MMX shifter/brake mount connections, additionally they provide primary 22.2 and 31.8mm handlebar clamps. Usually, you could find adaptors for different brake configurations like Magura, Hayes, Hope, and many others, in order that’s one thing you’ll seemingly need to think about relying on the brakes you utilize.

As a result of most levers have a number of attachment factors to regulate the horizontal place of the lever, it’s normally pretty straightforward to place the distant in a great place in order that reaching it along with your thumb feels pure and intuitive. Some levers have further changes that permit ergonomics to be personalized even additional.

The exceptions to the cable-actuation rule are the RockShox Reverb AXS and the Fox Switch Neo, each of which require their very own wi-fi management items. These remotes run off battery energy and transmit a wi-fi sign to the publish. One wonderful thing about the Switch Neo distant is that it comes with adapters for each SRAM and Shimano brakes, in addition to a regular bar clamp. It additionally transfers the actuation sign extremely rapidly — noticeably sooner than the Reverb AXS.

Weight

Dropper posts will at all times weigh greater than a regular seatpost, however most riders (and more and more, even aggressive cross-country racers) are prepared to take a weight penalty for the improved dealing with and management advantages of utilizing a dropper publish. In fact, all different issues being equal, lighter is usually thought of higher, assuming efficiency isn’t compromised within the title of weight financial savings.

For this check, we weighed the publish solely, realizing that the load of the cable housing will differ barely relying on the size required on your body, and that may also usually be constant on your bike, no matter which cable-actuated publish you select. Additionally it is value noting that longer journey posts weigh greater than shorter journey variations of the identical publish because of the further supplies wanted to make them longer. And, since our testers used totally different lengths of posts, it’s difficult to get an ideal weight comparability.

Whereas a heavier dropper publish received’t be as noticeable on the path as a heavy set of tires or wheelset, it’ll add to the general weight of your bike and could also be a consideration for you. All of the posts on this check weighed between 441g (Fox Switch SL) and 733g (Rockshox Reverb AXS). For the cable-actuated droppers, the OneUp V3 is persistently one of many lightest weight choices, weighing in at 515g within the 210mm journey size (433g for the 150 mm model).

The Wolf Tooth Resolve is shut behind at simply 565g at 200mm of journey. For these tremendous acutely aware about weight, like XC racers, there are some “superlight” choices in the marketplace these days, just like the Fox Switch SL and the Bike Yoke Divine SL. These light-weight fashions do save a good quantity of weight, coming in at 441g and 451g, respectively, however they’re provided in a narrower vary of drop lengths. It’s undoubtedly value mentioning that the OneUp V3 droppers at the moment are lighter than the SL fashions we examined (in the identical drop lengths).

Set up

If you buy a brand new dropper from a motorcycle store, it is not uncommon that they’ll set up it for you. If you buy a dropper from an internet retailer, you may carry it to an area store and pay to have it put in. Alternatively, in case you choose to do it your self, the method is comparatively simple, assuming you may have cable/housing cutters and affordable mechanical expertise.

The set up course of is basically the identical whatever the actuation methodology:

1. Run a piece of cable housing (or hydraulic line) from the seat tube to the exit port close to the top tube. The course you pull the housing via can rely in your body, and it’s at all times a good suggestion to make use of current housing to drag via new housing at any time when attainable. This helps information the brand new housing via tight curves within the inside routing.
2. Connect the cable to the actuator on the backside of the publish and run it via the housing. Place the housing within the housing cease on the base of the publish
3. Push the publish into the body whereas concurrently pulling the cable/housing (or hydraulic line) out of the exit port close to the top tube.
4. Connect the cable/housing to the lever after mounting it to the handlebars.
5. For posts with hydraulic actuation, bleed the system. For cable-actuated posts, clamp the cable to the lever, trim the cable and add a cable finish, and use the barrel adjuster to attain correct cable stress.

Upkeep

Just like transferring suspension elements, most dropper publish producers advocate cleansing, inspecting, and lubricating your publish after each trip and performing their model of a full service between 100 and 200 hours of using. Many posts are designed to be user-serviceable, and they are often taken aside, cleaned, and relubricated with normal instruments and somewhat time. Elements for a lot of posts can be found for buy, and this may prevent cash whereas retaining your dropper working properly in the long run. For a deep dive on dropper publish upkeep, please see our Suspension Tech: preserve your dropper seatpost article.

Droppers for Gravel Bikes

Because the gravel bike market continues to develop and mature, some fashions are coming outfitted with dropper posts, and/or the frames function inside cable routing to accommodate one. In fact, not everybody wants or desires a dropper on their gravel bike, however those that trip steeper, rougher roads or prefer to enterprise onto singletrack trails could discover that the advantages outweigh the slight weight penalty.

Most, however not all, gravel bikes have smaller 27.2mm seat tube diameters, and happily, many manufacturers now make droppers on this measurement to fulfill the rising demand. On the whole, dropper posts made for gravel bikes have much less journey, starting from round 50mm to 125mm. On the extra reasonably priced finish of the spectrum, OneUp Elements makes the V3 27.2 in 90 and 120mm drop lengths.

Crankbrothers gives one of many largest ranges of drop lengths, with 60, 80, 100, and 125mm choices for his or her Highline XC Gravel publish. Fox makes a 27.2mm model of their light-weight Switch SL in each Manufacturing facility and Efficiency Elite in each 50mm and 70mm drop lengths. On the excessive finish of the worth spectrum, the RockShox Reverb XPLR AXS brings wi-fi dropper expertise to your gravel rig.

Value & Worth

Dropper posts are nearly at all times dearer than inflexible posts, however contemplating the efficiency advantages they supply, we really feel they’re value their weight in gold. Like something in mountain biking, we now have fairly a couple of choices, they usually come at a fairly wide selection of costs.

Fortunately, most fashionable mountain bikes include dropper posts, however many individuals select to improve to one thing that works or matches higher than the inventory choice. So, how a lot must you spend, and what’s the distinction?

Be aware: Most aftermarket dropper posts don’t include a distant lever. Most dropper posts will work with most dropper levers, so if you have already got one, you would possibly have the ability to use it with no matter publish you select. That mentioned, not all dropper publish remotes are created equal, and a few merely work, really feel, and look higher than others. When buying a brand new publish, you might also must consider the price of a brand new distant lever into the equation. They usually value between $40 and $70, relying on the model/mannequin.

Price range

Today, you may get a practical dropper for round $150, however we expect most individuals including an aftermarket publish to their bike ought to anticipate to spend about $200. It’s not that cheaper droppers don’t work, however based mostly on our expertise, we expect you get the next degree of efficiency and sturdiness by spending just a bit bit extra.

For these working on a funds, the least costly mannequin on this information, the PNW Loam, will set you again round or simply over $229 (plus a bit extra for a distant in case you don’t have already got one). This publish doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it surely performs very properly and is an distinctive worth for anybody who doesn’t have extra to spend.

Mid-Tier

Transferring only a bit larger within the worth vary, we expect most individuals will discover the most effective ratio of worth and efficiency within the $270-400 vary. We understand that’s a fairly large unfold, however that’s additionally the place many of the finest dropper posts in the marketplace land on the worth spectrum. Right here, we regularly discover smoother journey, lighter weights, and particular options that set some fashions aside.

On the decrease finish of this vary, the $270 OneUp V3 Dropper is tremendous {smooth}, has a brief stack top and quick general size, is available in essentially the most drop size choices, and is without doubt one of the lightest fashions in the marketplace. The OneUp V3’s mixture of efficiency attributes makes it one in all our absolute favorites and arguably the most effective worth you could find.

As costs climb, we begin to see options like the flowery Kashima-coated stanchion on the Fox Switch Manufacturing facility ($309), the bleed valve on the Bike Yoke Revive 3.0 ($350-420), or the self-bleeding cartridge on the Wolf Tooth Resolve rev2 ($350-400). Usually talking, we additionally see a rise in smoothness and high quality, and these posts are supposed to be user-serviceable and supply a few years of devoted service. Most manufacturers additionally promote small elements, so at-home mechanics can hold them working easily while not having to shell out more money to get them repaired at a store.

Premium

Above the mid-tier worth vary, the price of dropper posts will increase considerably to $600 or extra. There are solely a small handful of fashions method up right here within the worth stratosphere, with a lot larger prices related to wi-fi expertise. RockShox was the primary to market with the first model of the wi-fi Reverb AXS on the eye-watering worth of $861, making a big splash each by way of worth and as a significant development in wi-fi expertise for mountain bikes. They’ve since up to date the Reverb AXS and decreased its worth to $599, though you continue to want to purchase a distant for $165 or $220 in case you don’t have already got one.

Fox arrived a bit later to the wi-fi dropper publish get together however has developed its personal wi-fi protocol in an try to realize the higher hand. Launched in the summertime of 2024, the Fox Switch Neo ($859) is now the costliest choice you should purchase. That mentioned, it has a shorter stack top, the distant could be very ergonomic, and the actuation is lightning quick. It’s arguably the most effective dropper you should purchase, but it surely’s additionally a complete splurge. It additionally tops out at 200mm, so taller riders will seemingly must look elsewhere for now.

Does anybody really want a wi-fi dropper on their bike? Completely not. Is it cool that we now have the choice? We predict so. Nonetheless, until you’re swimming in disposable earnings, we expect the added value of upgrading to wi-fi is difficult to justify when cheaper choices carry out simply as properly (however with cables).
