![]() ![]() To boot, the V2 doesn’t cost a fortune and we had no issues with it sticking or feeling lumpy during the testing period. OneUp’s done this by making the post’s body, seal head and seat clamp as slim as possible and the 210mm travel post was shorter than RockShox’ Reverb B1 150mm travel post by 34mm. The OneUp V2 dropper’s party piece is how it lets riders substantially increase their post’s travel, meaning the seat can be lower on the descents while returning to the same position at full extension, without the equivalent increase in post stack height. Weight: 579g (without remote and cable – remote: 48g).Price: £179 as tested (plus £42 for OneUp Dropper Post Remote V2).Read our full Crankbrothers Highline 7 dropper post review.Although the return speed isn’t adjustable, a ‘soft push’ of the lever makes the seatpost return slower. Top-quality Trelleborg sealing and igus glide bearings mean performance is impressively smooth, easily controlled and consistent even on the longest, dirtiest rides or after an extended rest. Previously, Crankbrothers’ posts had a reputation for being unreliable, but we had no such experiences with the Highline 7, and should the worst happen, it’s backed by the brand’s four-year warranty. The stack height – the distance from the bottom of the post’s collar to the centre of the seat rails – was impressively short at 50mm, too.Īlthough the remote was £55 extra, we thought it was well worth it, thanks to its smooth action and adjustable angle. ![]() The post’s construction screams quality and it was very simple to fit to our test bikes thanks to the cable’s nipple attaching to the post end, with the lever clamping the cable at the other end. With the Highline 7, it looks as though Crankbrothers has nailed performance, reliability and ease of fitment.
