This video was a great help. Only one I’ve found that actually shows/ gives you the way to measure everything. Very big help.
OneUp and PNW have adjustable stack height that allows you to get closer to max insertion and then shim the stack down to get the correct height.
BIG HELP! Thank you! 😎👍💯
Awesome video
I got the speed dropper where the lever is under the seat. Works the same and much cheaper!
😊❤ Merci Thank you 👍
I got a dropper that's a few mm taller for me (Pro Discover 70 for a gavel bike). It's sitting flush with the seatpost collar, but since it has infinite adjustment, I end up adjusting it mid-flight. It's not the most optimum and fastest ride, but I can't think of riding without a dropper. Even on a gravel bike it'd be the first thing I install.
Here in Brazil we had a Big wall for choice the correct dropper post, yeah! The price. Due to this some people buy the EVa Form and just installed w/o any measurement....
oh god that pun ... kill me now :D
What are my options with a Giant proprietary D Fuse seat post?
I know newer riders see these as essential but Ive been riding mtb for 33 years and dont feel the need. But I mostly ride xc trails. Only 1 time in last 5 years that I felt I needed one and that was over in 5 seconds.
2nd
i have been been riding/racing mountain bikes for 37 years this is one of the dumbest things that has come out.
I don't use any dropper post. Sorry guys.😬
I use an suspended seat post from "Post Modern". I ride on my E-bike.
This bike isn't design to go off road. It's design for use in the city. NOT for heavy off road use.
Only I can ride on an smooth path made from sea shells.
So why did you watch the video? 😂
Thank you for apologizing.
