    At about 80% lever travel, both on way up and down ?

    Clock seems to come from the post internals. Just noticed this today, seems to be working fine.

    Only two rides on mine so far but not noticed a click. I will keep an ear out though.

    Cheers, not sure if it has just started or I haven’t noticed it before. It’s about 3 months old and gets used a few times a week.

    yeh I think mine does, do you mean as you press the lever in? I think its the cable catching slightly somewhere on mine, its not annoying really though, it was there one time, then I had a new cable and it went, then I swapped frames and it came back..

    That sounds like it, yes. I have just had it out the frame and think it’s the rocker clicking at the base of the post when the cable pull goes past a certain position.

    ive not got around to it, as it doesn’t bother me really, but does sound like what mine does, past a certain bit of travel, ive not touched mine now for 2 months since new frame and its worked flawlessly still, if you find the exact spot its catching let me know, may as well try and get it right , although think I’m gonna get a wolftooth lever for it soon anyways

    OW – mine has a Wolftooth LA lever on it. The click isn’t at that end though, it’s at the base of the post. I’ll leave it be for a bit and see if it changes at all. BTW, the Wolftooth lever is great !

    What’s the length from the centre of the clamp to the end of the lever on that wolftooth LA?

    Not going to help with your problem but I’d been meaning to ask someone.

    It’s on a wee slider, so adjusts from around 50-55mm.

    I had a wee issue today while messing with it and the bolt for clamping the cable rounded. Mailed supplier who said it’s an M4, 6mm and they are changing to a chunkier head as have have a few reports of rounding off. They are posting me a couple and a quick dive into Bothy Bikes in Aviemore got me sorted, cheers guys 🙂

    Cheers. Just wondering how well it would mate to a hope tech 3 lever in I-spec mode.

    Hmmm, no idea. I am on shimano xt8000 series stuff so played safe and ordered the clamp version of the wolftooth. It sits quite far inboard of the brake lever, probably about 8mm of bar between the edges of the 2 clamps. The brake lever clamp is a good 15mm inboard from collar of grip.

    Not had a single issue in 8 months and 900km of riding, don’t know how many ups and downs that equates to! An awesome seatpost.

    well the click remains, and having spoken to Mojo, they want it back for a look….Will update once I get it back.

    seatpost back, good turnaround from LBS and Mojo – there is a little barrel that is actuated by the lever at the base of the post and it had developed a tiny groove, that the lever mechanism was clicking into. I just spoke to the technician, who reckoned it was built without enough grease. They have replaced the whole bottom cap assembly under warranty. First one they have seen that on apparently.

    Update, it’s doing it again 🙁

    Doesn’t affect the operation so will live with it for a while until Mojo service situation a bit clearer….

    Ah, good, thanks. I bought it from LBS so will take it back in for them to send off.

    Any self service guides? They were meant to be user serviceable weren’t they?

    It’s only 7 months old so happier to get it sorted under warranty. Last time they said a part had developed a groove from the cable, so if that is the case again I’d rather it was properly sorted.
