Hi,

After probably a reverb and noticed that they come in various lengths and drop

1) My current bike is a Medium Enduro - I am around 5'9
2) Current seatpost is 300mm from bottom to the bit where it lays back
3) Maximum insert seems to be about 210mm
4) I run the seatpost at 140mm

I am thinking a 350mm with 100 mm drop would seem the right one to go for?

Are the measurements taken from the min insert line or total length of post?

Ideas

Thanks
Kwack

there are 2 lengths
1 - the drop 100/125/150mm generally
2 - Overall length extended

What you need to work out is how much post is showing - available for drop + the amount of stuff that is fixed above the post
