New: Shimano debuts Koryak dropper post
Originally posted on August 31, 2016 at 11:31 am
Weighing in at 520g (including remote and cable) and available in 30.9 or 31.6 mm diameter options, the Koryak adjustable alloy seat post offers 120 mm of smooth non-indexed travel for on-the-fly adjustability. Cable routing is internal and set up using Shimano’s OPTISLICK cables for optimum performance in dirt and mud.
Two lever options are available, a regular up/down lever which can be mounted on the left or right of the bars, or a Firebolt-style lever (compatible with Shimano I-Spec II) for those running 1×11 or a Shimano Syncronized Shift drivetrain, which takes advantage of the free left hand shift lever position for operating the dropper post.
A full complement of spares are available including air cartridges and new bushings to prolong longevity. The post will be available this fall.
