dropper post

The best dropper posts are a good example of how fast and far mountain bike technology evolves. Less than 10 years ago, a seatpost that moved up and down was a rarity, but it’s near impossible to find a mountain bike without one now.

A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical, opening up a far wider range of riding – without having to stop and manually move your post up and down when tackling steep trails.

We’ve got a wide range of dropper post reviews on BikeRadar and this list represents the best of the best. Whether you’re looking to fit a dropper post to your bike for the first time or upgrade your current dropper, you’ll find something here.
