...especially longevity-wise cos I'm not into fiddling.
gravity dropper, clunky but minimal fuss
Gravity dropper or Gravity dropper Turbo by far. But the KS i7 is pretty good as well.
Gravity Dropper
I believe that the Thomson 27.2 post is due out very soon , it will probably be worth waiting for . I have had a play with a 30.9 version and it seems very smooth with absolutely no play .
My lev has been pretty good so far.
Is there any word on cost of the Thomson ??
I've just got a TMARS post, no long term info yet (only had it a couple of weeks) but it works very well so far.
I had my gravity dropper for years, hardly missed a beat and as far as I know is still going strong... Ace kit. Good weight, too, and the cable at the right end.
thomson 27.2 dropper will retail for 350. I personally loathe gravity droppers because they're not infinite-adjust like the reverbs.
I've had a thomson 27.2 dropper on backorder since they were announced though for my fatbike and I believe i-ride are saying by the end of june
i-ride are saying by the end of june
it'll be worth the wait I have a 31.6 and I think it's superb
Another vote for GD from me
Still waiting on Thomson, getting cheesed off with their lack of/misleading info on 27.2 shipping dates.
My KS racing one was perfect. No idea of its name i900? Or i750 summit like that.
I took it apart once and it was mint inside after three years of use and no servicing.
ok STW what should I get, this http://www.bike-discount.de/en/buy/classic-4-multi-seatpost-27%2C2-mm-left-13161

Go for the one with the remote.
I used to say GravityDropper, but after they filled out a customs form incorrectly and I got charged over £45 in duty for a $20 repair, they promised to help but then went quiet when I gave them the helpline number. I'd already correctly paid £45 duty on both posts I ordered from them (one before they distributed in the UK, one more recently as I couldn't find a non-remote one)
