The other day I was looking at the specs for the new Giant Genius Lt 700 and I am intrigued by the twin-loc system which allows the fork and shock to be adjusted remotely in a format similar to fox CTD. The twin-loc system remote comes alongside a dropper post remote and i reckon adjusting two levers on the trail would be pretty cumbersome, so I was wondering, does anyone make a product which allows for a remote system that controls the fork and shock settings (CTD) and also dropper post height with one lever adjustment from a remote?
(If not, I shall Invent it 😆 )
Does this exist yet?

Not that I'm aware of. 🙂
Oops, Scott Genius Lt 700. Apologies.
I suspect tyring to push a lever which pulls 3 cables all at once might be too high a load for some peoples thumbs, especially once mud/grit starts to ingress into it
Fox were airing towards that as a possibility with their CTD system, however IMO, having ridden for the last 7or8 seasons on tracloc equipped bikes, the seatpost has to remain seperate.
I currently run a Genius 700 with a DOSS post, whilst it makes sense (sometimes) to have 3 distinct characteristics:
1) Full post height - full low speed compression damping on fork and locked out rear
2) 40mm drop on post - some low speed compression damping fork - traction rear
3) full post drop - fork wide open - full travel rear
there are too many scenarios outside of those 3 examples where I want independent control of the post height.. i.e. pedalling over mildly tech terrain, I want fork and shock compliance, but full post height.
