Hi Chaps,

Does anyone know of any deals on uppy-downy seatposts at the moment?

Cheers

Rockshox Reverb approx £170

peter your link isn’t working mate..

Is that the model that fastens onto the Avid brake mounts??

I know the Joplin has had it’s issues, but the Joplin 4 is now out (never tried it) CRC special offer here

Got a Giant contact switch with remote for £150… seems good so far. Came from Roe Valley – now showing as £160 and out of stock.

I’ll be selling a Joplin 3 in the next few days (different bike now, doesn’t fit), comes with both a 30.9 and 31.6 (fitted) sleeve and a remote (fitted) and lever.
Thinking £90 delivered, mail in profile if interested

Don’t see the point of the lever adjust ones. Get a remote one, or don’t bother, IMO.

I don’t know about deals but I just wanted to say I got a Reverb on Saturday and it is awesome.

have a look at the giant version as well…wev sold a couple and theyve not come back and seem really well finished.160 😆

According to the Giant website, their seatpost only weighs 205grams. That’s got to be a typo surely?

I think it’s supposed to be 535g

Moose Cycles do a bit of a discount on some of them, including the KS posts.

The giant one looks familiar, is it ripped off from somewhere?

I never seem to hear of deals on Gravity dropper posts, why is that?

Sweepy you missed wiggle clearing their stock earlier this year then 😉

Cobblers!

why are these things so damn expensive? Honestly? people must have made some themselves. Admittedly they will be crap, but £250 for what is essentially the thing which goes under your office chair seems extortionate

Or 160 as above including remote, cable, a hydraulic system, etc etc etc….

How would warranty be handled on a dropper post bought from Germany (eg bike-components.de)? Would it need to go back to the german shop first?

£250 for what is essentially the thing which goes under your office chair seems extortionate

yup, my thoughts exactly.

think of it as half a pair of forks with a list price of £700?

a) some forks are a lot less than that
b) it’s a lot less than half the fork, no steerer etc ?

some forks are a lot less than that

some uppy downy seatposts are less than £250

it’s a lot less than half the fork, no steerer etc ?

it’s less than half of £700 😉

😆

I’m selling a very little used ks i950 31.6mm post due to frame change.
120 delivered…
