Telescopic Seatposts

Telescopic seatpost - Adapt your position according to the terrain!

With a telescopic saddle, it is now possible to adapt the height of the saddle of its mountain bike to the slope of the terrain! No need to get down from the machine before tackling a descent to lower your mountain bike saddle: almost all models of telescopic seat stems offered on our site have an order on the handlebars, for optimal convenience! Handicapping for downhill steering, a high saddle is however most comfortable and effective when it comes to drawing gear. Enduists or all-Mountain followers still not converted to the telescopic seatpost will find a perfect tool for facilitating transitions between rolling grounds and technical portions.
 

Telescopic seatpost - The choice of a good telescopic seatpost: watch out for compatibility with your frame!

The telescopic saddle stems available on the market have different possibilities for saddle height settings. The length and the race (displacement of the saddle down) of the telescopic saddle rods vary as follows: for a rod of 300 mm a race of 75 mm, for a rod of 350 mm a race of 100 mm, for 385 mm or 400 mm long 125 mm racing and for 420 mm long 150 mm of running. The choice of the right telescopic seatpost for your mountain bike must also take into account its diameter, of which there are several standards: 27.2 mm, 30.9 mm, 31.6 mm and 34.9 mm. The mountain bike rod of your choice must be compatible with the dimensions of your frame!

If it is obviously necessary to ensure compatibility with your mountain bike frame, the choice of your next telescopic seatpost will also have to take into account its own characteristics. The extent of its race in particular, according to your size and your position on the bicycle. But also the operating means of the telescopic seatpost, which can be mechanical or hydraulic, this last system requiring increased attention to its maintenance.
