Advice re Dropper Post Length

Post by oilman4345 »

Hi ;
I have realised that even with my dropper post fully extended I am not getting full leg extension on pedals. Can I purchase a slightly longer seat post even if it means that the operation of the dropper post is cancelled (I never use the capability as my journeys do not need it).?

Yes. You'll need to know the seatpost diameter - it's often engraved on the post and the length you seek bearing in mind minimum insertion in the frame. Also, some posts have more set back so assuming you're happy with your current position over the BB/pedals, get a new post with the same geometry/set back.
