Oneup V2 Dropper Post Servicing – Who does this?

Looking to get my Oneup dropper post serviced, however local bike shop can’t do it and it appears most of the suspension service places I’ve tried don’t do them either.

Anyone know a shop/ service centre in the north west/ Yorkshire area that can do this?

Or is it so easy I should do it myself?

It;s just a sealed cartridge inside, easy to service..

Sprung Suspension have done mine in the past. They are near me in the Forst of Dean but they use DPD collect & deliver so should be easy to sort out.
As above though, I think they’re quite easy to do yourself though.

Very easy to do the basics. I’ve never had to replace the air cartridge on either of mine, or any of the brand X so no idea how easy that is.

A basic strip and lube is probably easier than a shock air can service or fork lowers. If the pressure in the post is OK you can even leave the saddle on.

There are a few videos, it is a very simple process, it’s more of a strip and clean and reassemble.

It’s so simple to do that it takes less time than watching the instruction video!

The only bit I had any difficult with was getting my undersized spanner off the actuator. That’s not the posts fault but mine for grabbing the cheap spanner with crap tolerances instead of the nicer set in the garage 😡.

DIY it’s a very easy job.

It’s so easy – buy the £20 refresh kit and pickup some slik kick suspension grease and go for it. Just need something to grip the top collar (car oil filter removal tool with a band that tightens is good), a small Allen key for the actuator and a spanner / adjustable spanner to remove the bottom actuator piece. If it’s still returning alright then no need to remove the saddle from memory – only need to do that if you want to put more air in the cartridge.

Allow yourself 30 mins and be methodical (there are instructions online) and it’s not a difficult job.

Unless it’s older or has obvious signs of wear on the bushings or seal I’d argue you don’t need the refresh kit. The top collar can also be done by hand mostly.

Nice one thanks, I’ll give it a go myself I think

Takes about 20/30 mins. Super easy to do yourself with some basic tools. The only specialist thing you’ll need is SRAM Butter / Slickoleum-style grease.

I normally find the post gets a bit more wobbly and the top cap seal loses its mojo after a while – the refresh kit has a new top cap in it among other things which fixes that.

But I rode my bikes through all sorts of miserable gloop so the dropper posts / suspension gets a bit of a hard time.

Benji did a handy video on this the other week:

I did a dropper service fairly easily following a youtube video.

Just be aware you can kink the cable when you take it out- getting a new internally routed cable through my bike was the hardest part.
