Gravity Dropper Turbo LP Dropper Seatpost

5/5 (1 Reviews)
MSRP : $325.00


Product Description

The new GravityDropper Turbo LP is replacing the GravityDropper Turbo, which came out in 2007. The GravityDropper Turbo is no longer available. Introduced at the 2012 Interbike Expo, the GravityDropper Turbo LP has now officially replaced the GravityDropper Turbo. Key differences in the two models are as follows:

  • Lower profile unit that is rotated 90° resulting in cleaner cable routing
  • Requires 1/4 inch less exposed seat post in order to ride each drop length
  • Upgraded 2024 aluminum resulting in a 500% increase in strength
  • New more flixible cable housing for better cable routing
  • More clearance for the back tire
  • Turbo LP unit now bolted to the post instead of bonded
  • 17 gram reduction in weight

Strengths:    Reputation of previous models. Simple to install. Large variety of sizing options, great for us shorter riders. Good customer support. I was uncertain which size to order, just called up Caleb from sales and he got me set up.

Weaknesses:    Cost compared to some products. Like most reviews of previous models, the boot is not my favorite but once you see improvement in your downhill riding, who cares.

Bottom Line:   
I am short guy riding a small Superlight 29, had issues finding post that would fit me. Most brands needed more seatpost showing than I had on my set up. Gravity Dropper has large variety of products to fit my needs. I have 2 inch drop on 30.9 x 350mm seat post. Very easy to install right out of box, only issue is that the guides on my frame required me to remove on bolt of rear shock mount, but took less than 10 minutes to install including mounting saddle.
