    Morning folks

    I have a Scott Voltage that I ride 9 miles across Cannock Chase to Stile Cop and back. Its a big old tank with a very low top tube but if I use a 420 mm seatpost I can ride it cross-country without too much difficulty. When I get to Stile Cop, the 420 mm post is too long to slam the saddle so I swap it for a 220 mm road post. When I’m done I swap posts and ride it back home again.

    It would be great to get to the hill and not have to swap posts. Is there such a thing as a 31.6 x 420 mm dropper seatpost that drops 200 mm?

    No need for a remote it would only be used a couple of times per ride. Cheers

    You get two chances to drop it (normal QR + one on seatpost) so getting 200mm should be ok?

    Yup I see what you mean. Lower the outer with the QR then drop the rest of the post within itself

    Thanks folks!
