I have a Scott spark rc with twin lock and wanting to run a dropper post ideally the AXS, but know I will struggle with the paddle/twin lock/brake brackets on the bars, any one run this set up ? Any pics would be appreciated thanks

This is what they did for Kate Courtney's bike

There was also an article on PB last week that SRAM were applying for some patents or approvals for something related to wireless shock shifters. Just found it, so maybe you could mount the twinloc above the bar for the time being and see what SRAM revel at the Olympics

The easiest way is to get a Veyron instead. It’s very good.

If you are running a fox nude rear and fox 34 front I have a spare "above the bars twinloc" setup which would overcome your issues.

I didn’t really like the Veyron, but it is an option, and I’m on rockshox Sid ultimate

you could take welsh farmers twinloc and swap the fork cam from yours.
I think they are the same for above/under.

I puzzled over this for ages and did loads of research but concluded that I couldn't get an AXS dropper to work without a lot of work, bodging and expense.

Eventually I went for the Vyron and I am really pleased with it.

Thanks guys, I didn’t really think I could get away with the AXS, just heard today that Magura are bringing a updated vyron out, so probs wait for the info on that, in the mean time I may just stick a cable operated dropper on.
