OneUp Components has released its new V3 Dropper Post, featuring a shorter stack length, lighter weight and easier servicing.<\/p>

The new dropper post<\/a> offers infinite adjustability and is 60g to 70g lighter (depending on size) than the V2 Dropper Post<\/a> it replaces.<\/p>

Prices start at \u00a3291.99 \/ $269.99 \/ \u20ac291.99 for the post only, with the remote priced at \u00a344.99 \/ $44.99 \/ \u20ac49.99. Both can be bought together for \u00a3320.99 \/ $299.99 \/ \u20ac324.99.<\/p>

All-new design<\/h2>

The previous version of OneUp\u2019s Dropper Post was very well received, with the post being awarded a rare 5 stars when we tested it.<\/p>
The brand says it has built on the positives of the V2 dropper, while developing the V3 Dropper Post from the ground up.<\/p>
The new dropper is said to have a 75 per cent reduction in breakaway force, making for an easier and smoother actuation.<\/p>

The V3 Dropper Post features updated internals for easier actuation. – OneUp Components<\/figcaption><\/figure>
This is facilitated by a new cartridge design and bushings with increased overlap to reduce friction.<\/p>
OneUp says it has also developed new seals for the dropper that use a custom SKF wiper seal to keep water and dirt from ingressing and grease from escaping.<\/p>
To decrease rotational play, the brand says it has doubled the amount of anti-rotational and added two oversized polymer pins to the dropper\u2019s internals.<\/p>
Minimal maintenance<\/h2>

The V3 Dropper Post is said to be easy to dismantle. – OneUp Components<\/figcaption><\/figure>
The V3 Dropper Post looks to be easily serviceable, with the brand claiming it can be dismantled in less than 10 minutes with common tools found on a multi-tool<\/a> \u2013 a 14mm, 5mm and 2mm Allen key wrench.<\/p>
This comes alongside longer service intervals, with the recommendation being 120 hours for a \u2018clean and grease\u2019, and 350 hours for a rebuild.<\/p>
OneUp also says its new cartridge is 100% recyclable for when you need to replace it.<\/p>
The dropper comes in 30.9mm, 31.6mm and 34.9mm diameters, and 90mm, 120mm, 150mm, 180mm, 210mm and 240mm-travel options with infinite adjustability, enabling you to run the dropper on various frame sizes.<\/p>
Slighter and lighter<\/h2>
$\"OneUp$
A 3mm shorter stack height of 30mm means you can run your saddle even lower, and is one of the shortest stack heights on the market. – OneUp Components<\/figcaption><\/figure>
OneUp claims the weight ranges from 325g to 408g, depending on the diameter of the post for the 90mm-travel post, while the 240mm post ranges from 585g \/ 765g.<\/p>
There is also a Ti Bolt upgrade kit for those looking to add some more bling to their post and save a couple of grams.<\/p> <\/body><\/html>\n
