V2 Dropper Travel Adjustment Instructions

Things You Will Need

  • 6 Travel shim pins (included with dropper)
  • Slickoleum (included with dropper)
  • Strap wrench (for collar if beyond hand tight)
  • Clean cloth or rag

 Assembly time, approximately 10 minutes. Difficulty: Easy.

Drop tuning can be done on-bike, almost tool free and without removing the saddle or touching a shock pump.  Lowering the post travel also increases bushing overlap and alignment pin length,  which is great for heavier riders.

STEP 1: COMPRESS DROPPER

Press the remote lever and either by hand or by butt compress the dropper to roughly mid travel.

 

STEP 2: MID CAP ASSEMBLY

Unscrew the mid cap assembly (8) by hand or with you strap wrench if necessary.  Slide it up towards the seatpost head.  

Gentley press the remote lever to extend the post & to pop the upper bushing (9) out of the lower post.  Then slide this bushing up towards the seatpost head.

 

 

STEP 3: INSTALL TRAVEL SHIM PINS

Once the mid cap assembly (8) & upper bushing (9) are out of the way you should have clear access to the 3 guide slots. 

For 10mm travel reduction:  Install the first 3 10mm travel shim pins (18) by sliding 1 pin per slot into the guide slots of the upper tube (7). 

For 20mm travel reduction:  Once the first 3 travel shim pins are in place,  using your finger,  gently push each travel pin down the guide slot until you can fit the next 3 10mm travel shim pins.

 

STEP 4: INSTALL UPPER BUSHING

Once the travel shim pins (18) are in their respective guide slots, push remote lever and carefully drop the post until the guide slots are out of sight. You can then push the upper bushing back into the lower tube with a layer of fresh grease.

Note: If your finding your upper bushing (9) is not seating all the way down you may need to compress your post another 20mm.

 

STEP 5: TIGHTEN MID CAP ASSEMBLY

Thread mid cap assembly (8) back down onto lower tube (12) by hand. Finish snugging it up with your strap wrench.

 

 

STEP 6: FIT CHECK

Adjust your entire post to a comfortable ride/climbing height and pedal around in your riding shoes/kit to make sure it is correct. 

Note: Be sure to not to over tighten your seat collar. Max 4Nm.
