The wife would like a dropper post, problem is the distance to seat rails is only 13cm.

She does find it makes a big difference when dropping it down, even though its only a couple of inches difference..

Anyone know of a post with 80mm or so drop with shortest collar and seat clamp for a 31.6 size post that's generally available? External cable routing...

Cheers!

    300mm post with 75mm travel. The carbon Lev is 65mm of travel if you wanted something a bit more plush.
  • thats so close, the 100mm drop reverb is 14cm.

    i got the 355mm x 100mm drop but it only comes in the 30.9 so had to buy a shim. i have the post all the way in the seat and as said its 14cm from the bottom to the top of the seat post so excluding the seat itself.

    With any dropper you just need to find out what is the distance is with the post fully inserted and the dropper is fully extended. if its 13cm or less then great stuff.

    my son has used a 100mm reverb in 100x355 size (31.6mm) and currently has a KS lev DX 100mm which is better because of the cable opertation. I'm putting it up for sale as its too short for him now and he needs a 125mm

    this should be of some help
