Has anyone here fitted one on a Scott genius ? Not sure if I need the 380mm or 420mm version, I know ill need to shim it, if anyone has used one I'd be grateful of any advice, cheers
Anyone ?
I am also interested in doing this to my Scott Genius. I have been able to gather that it is not recommended by Scott, has anyone tried this, and what length should the seat post be?
Any help would be highly appreciated
The length you need depends on how much post you need (fully extended) sticking out of the bike - then check how much sticks in the bike.
Make sure you have enough in the bike so you wont damage it. The more the better.
I use superstar ally shim with Joplin. One reason I did it is because the carbon frame cracked at the little stress relieving hole at the base of the slot on the bit that the clamp compresses. I decided that a dropper post shimmed was better than constatly undoing and redoing the clamp and flexing the carbon to raise/lower post.
Scott say to shim voids warranty IIRC. I have had no probs in a year of using it. Go figure which is better.
done it and its great, 380mm/30.9 reverb shimmed in my genius , no probs and great fun !!interested to know what size reverb is in the LT genius and if its shimmed ?
