Gravity Dropper

In short I love this thing. Don't know how I got along without it. I know it added at least 1/2 lb to the rig, but I don't care.

Before riding it, I was convinced it was all hype, but the ability to adjust saddle position on the fly is really, really nice.

I actually used it the most on today's technical climbs going between the full extended and 1" drop positions. This let me get just a little more body english to work on the highly difficult switchbacks. Descending with the saddle down was sweetness. The only thing I missed was a touch of set back, probably 5-10 mm more forward than I like when fully extended. I'll adapt.


It makes going under obstacles such as below easier, can't fit, drop the saddle in an instant and keep pedaling.
Also makes stowing the bike in the car easier too.
In short, it transforms the ride in a good way.
