View full detailsThe Coast dropper is the world’s first Suspension Dropper Post, combining ride smoothing suspension and the benefits of a dropper into one seat post. This dropper is designed to help riders on all types of bikes, from packed up trekkers, to the cross country wanderers, even the weekday commuters.
We developed the Coast because the earth isn’t flat (no matter what those people on twitter say), it’s kind of bumpy. And while we all like coasting along on freshly paved roads, mountain paths are enticing and potholes exist no matter how much we swear at them. The Coast Post was designed to soak up some of these vibrations. We accomplished this via 40mm of tunable air suspension housed in the internals to make your ride a bit smoother.
While this post provides some relief from everyday chatter it also comes with up to 120mm of drop. Most people associate dropper posts with mountain biking, but it turns out they’re pretty jazzy on everything from gravel bikes, to trekking rigs and commuters. Let’s face it, when your saddle is at the proper height dismounts can be… inelegant. A dropper post allows you to push a button and be in a flat footed position when you want, easily returning you to the best saddle height for riding once you get going again. This can be great for starting and stopping in city traffic, or getting on and off a bike packed up with stuff - or really, if your hips are just extra tight and creaky like ours.
Plus when you’re going downhill, a dropper easily gets the distraction of your seat out of the way, letting you lower your center of gravity. Not only does this put you in a safer riding position it also makes descents more fun (we wish this safer-but-also-more-fun combo was true for more things in life).
NOTE: While the Coast is rad at what it does, it is NOT a replacement for rear suspension. The Coast's intention is to absorb larger bumps such as potholes, curbs and other impacts, it does not provide small bump compliance found in rear suspension mountain bikes.

"It weighs almost twice as much as a standard dropper but the extra cush on my gravel bike is great"

"Amazing post, going on all my hardtails now. PNW components and Cambria Bike, can't go wrong with either."

"Works just as advertised. It has a great range from top to bottom and holds its position without sagging. The suspension provides just enough cushion for medium to large bumps though small bumps are not soaked up so easily. As others have mentioned there is a fine rotation which translates to only about one millimeter of left right movement at the tip of the saddle. It also does not come with the handlebar lever. You have to purchase this on your own. I bought the Puget X2 handlebar lever separately at an additional cost of $30."
