Following on from the dropper post thread, I saw this after Googling… fairly simple, but clever protection for the DSP Bighorn:

that seems quite ingenious, i suppose that could apply to a lot of droppers..?

I think crud guards should be standard on all posts, to this end I’m talking to DSP about production of one for the post. 😀

I have a reverb and didnt want all the crap sticking round the seals!
So I went to lbs and got a set of fork protectors (lizard skin) fits perfect even the little slit is at the right bit for the hose at the top!

I’ve just bodged a Decathlon mudguard onto the swingarm of my Wolf Ridge to protect the dropper post. I can’t use a seatpost mounted guard plus i needed one that fitted close to the tyre. For £7.99, a few zip ties and a bit off vibration-damping foam from work i have a decent mud guard that keeps me – and more importantly the post – free of shite 🙂

Does help that my post has the cable entering from the nose-side of the saddle 🙂

Having a Blackfin on my desk, I thought this was going to be about a different type of DSP 🙂

turbo1397… not really as neat on other posts and the DSP is such that u dont really have to fiddle with the cable when its wrapped up. On my old KS I did this as it still gives easy access to adjusting the set screw or ease of taking off the cable on the trail
