I’ve been testing the Factory
model in 31.6mm diameter,
internally routed for my Trek
Fuel EX and with 175mm drop.
175mm drop is a new option from
Fox and definitely an upgrade
on my bike's 150mm Bontrager
post. Upon opening the box,
it was hard not to notice the
Kashima finish on the stanchion
and its high-quality finish overall.
A two bolt saddle clamp head
makes it easy to mount up aI feel like I’ve been initiated into
a secret club of gear admirers.
As I slowly put up a couple of
social media posts about the
latest product I picked up the
messages start flooding in. “It’s
the best,” they say. “Love mine!”
Well, that was unexpected.
I wonder what it is about this
that makes people rave about
it so much!
Over the last little while I’ve
been testing the latest andgreatest dropper post from Fox.
They aren't a newcomer to the
dropper game, first releasing
their D.O.S.S. dropper post back
in 2012 and their Transfer post in- Available in a huge range
of different options including two
diameters (30.9 and 31.6mm), four
drops (100mm to a huge 175mm),
two performance levels and a
choice of internal/external routing
there’s a transfer post for most
modern bikes.
