This is my 3rd Ascend Dropper

This is my 3rd Ascend Dropper. Have them on all my mtb’s. They work flawlessly.

I had a nightmare with a new bike getting the correct diameter/drop etc.

Took me 3 go’s to get it right !!

Ascend were brilliant with sorting me out with refunds :)

I won’t use any other dropper.

Lovely, but keep in mind this is after just 1 ride !

THIS IS AFTER 1 RIDE, SO BEAR IN MIND

Pros:
-solid build quality all-round
-adequate actuation speed (especially for the price, if we re talking about price, for it s price the build quality is more than solid,absolutely great)
-looks nice and discreet (most of us would want that koshima coating/color on it but i m not expecting that for the price)
- for a skeptic and someone that is in between bike sizes (my climbing position was also my descending/attack position lol, couldn t lower the seat), it made me fall in love again with MTB-ing, and that was just after the first ride
-still have space to add my tail light, attached to the collar
-lowriding has been fun lol

Cons:
-instructions imo are lacking, and by that i mean the way the clamps for the seat are supposed to go, having to look at other reviews and product page to figure it out (i had no trouble with the bottom part since i had the post i was taking off to look at, but i did install the top part the wrong way.)
- the wire/cable might be too sensitive, got mangled up pretty bad while i was fitting and testing since i have a pretty unconventional run for it, to the point i had to get a 3rd party one to run smoothly in the housing, but i do accept that it might ve been my fault with the way i handled it
-little bit of wobble at the seat clamp, even though it s tightened sufficiently, guessing that it might be the little thread inserts. HAS NOT affected my comfort while sitting/climbing, so for now it s barely a con.

Overall the cons are most likely to be user error and even if they aren t they pros massively outweigh them. Very lovely product, hope it lasts as long as possible, with the proper care of course !

Replacement for reverb

Works really well. No issues so far and seems really good quality.

Good for the price

Post seems ok. I'm replacing a same sized tranz x with it as it has a rattle side to side and needs a rebuild. The flight post is slower to raise than the trans X but otherwise it is very much similar and familiar. I have had a brand x post previously with no issues also

Great dropper

Bought as a replacement for a reverb, cost less than a full service for the Rockshox!! Not used much yet but it looks solid and has a smooth return.

Seems like good quality

Seems like good quality, but im disappointed in the description of the post.

It states that it fits riders between 20-40kg but my son weighing 25kg cant compress the dropper down.

So it kind of useless until he eventually goes up in weight.

I bought the dropper post solely because of the weight specifics.

Making cycling easier for me

It was a shame i didn't find out earlier that i had the wrong size clamp for my drop bar handlebar.It would of saved me extra expenditure if i had known that.I had purchased an Ascend dropper seat post from another company.All i needed was the clamp and not all the cable that came with it.It works o.k,but it's a bit fragile.

My first dropper post

My first dropper post so nothing to compare it with.

Works as expected, no issues so far. Fit was a bit challenging but that’s more of a comment on the frame than the post.

If you’re considering getting one just do it, it’s so good to be able to get the saddle out of the way or just to put both feet on the ground when stopped.

Installed lever with dropper post all fine

Installed lever with dropper post all fine. Checked all is functioning. Son went out for a ride on 1st day excited as he was on trails and lever kept sliding to one side. Tightened Allen key under it and screw has rounded meaning I can't Tightened anymore. Currently has cable tie holding it together. Not best lever and system design in my opinion

Pair with the shift lever

OR, UPGRADE TO THE TUNE LEVER

Ergonomic design - 3 position tune - multi clamp options
