Thank you Bike Teacher - This video helped me get a TranzX post working again on a Kona Process 134DL.

Best dropper install video on YouTube!

Excellent- easy instructions and the reasoning behind slack cable and how to fix it. A good video is the camera and pretend that everyone is new to it. Never mind people rushing a step, thinking everyone knows. This was a good tutorial.

Thanks! Installing a new housing was the big issue for me, without specific tools. I hasld to improvise : I turned the bike upside down, fed the housing and the cable from the front hole to the bottom opening of the frame, there I attached the little metal cylinder that attaches to the seat post and I tied a shoelace to it. From there it was very easy to guide the unattached end of the sholace through the small hole and down the seat tube. Then just pull it and the housing follows the corect path. Then I followed this video. Hope this helps

Great video! I just bought a new dropper and having never installed one and unable to find much on the model I bought, I'm happy to have found this video. Thanks! Update: I installed my KS LEV SI dropper using your instructions. The only problem I had was with the measuring for the barrel. KS included a piece to measure the distance between the barrel and the housing, but there were no instructions, and I had it upside down which caused looseness in the cable. Once I figured out my error I was good to go. Thanks again!

I hope this is helpful, let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for the video instructions. Very clear and complete. I wish I had found this video in my earlier search as it could have saved me all the trouble I'm currently experiencing installing a seat post dropper.

Really good instructional video. Helped me a lot.
Perfectly demonstrates why these days most droppers have the cable clamp at the lever end !

This was an excellent video and probably the first to be thorough and explain everything as if you didn't know what you are doing. I already installed mine but had some complications but with this video I was able to fine tune it to how I wanted it. Thank you so much for the help!

can't thank you enough good sir! was lost as to how to get the cable attached to the actuator on the post. this video saved me! much respect. fantastic video in the knick of time. thanks very much

Thanks a lot. This helped me repairing my bike during Corona Crisis while all bike repair shops are closed. 👍

[Eduardoramundo]

Awesome video, thank you. It was great to see how the cable connects to the bottom of the post.

This video was extremely helpful in installing my dropper post. Thanks for sharing!

Best video. Follow exactly. Still had to improvise a bit by removing my handlebar switch to be able to feed the housing a bit more more into the body when attaching the saddle post.

You have convinced me to just pay the bike shop to do this for me because I don’t even have the tools for this and I’d mess it up so bad

[cyclone]

many thanks, i'd not got much of a clue when my dropper failed. This helped, thanks.

Thank you for the video. I like how it's real world - you encounter a problem, like all of us, and trouble shoot it - like with the electrical tape. BTW, a cheap pair of hemostats or a needle driver would probably make your life a lot easier on the nut installation part.

[brianlee]

As a first timer with this your video helped me tremendously. Thank you.

[markf]

Thank you, still helpful and relevant after 3 1/2 years.

I just installed my X fusion dropper and this helped quite a bit, thank you!
