Crank brothers fail
Picked one of these up last Friday. Looked good and was pretty keen to take it out for a spin. This was my first dropper post and I'd heard some not so great things about them. Crank bros claimed to have addressed these issues though so I thought it would be ok.
Alas this wasn't the case. By the third ride it had failed completely. The clamp could not hold the seat post up(I'm 85 kilos). Tried adjusting the cable tension. No good. Tried removing the cable just to see and still it failed. Back at the bike shop I was told I'm not alone and they've stopped selling them and are returning the ones they have.
Damn shame. Love the concept. I'm trying a reverb now. Hope I have better luck!
