OnlyMotion Electronic Dropper Post Conversion Kit Makes Your Wired Post Wireless

Wi-fi dropper posts are superior. However what if you have already got a dropper submit, or don’t just like the look of cumbersome batteries hung off the submit? OnlyMotion has the reply. Or, they’ll… as soon as their Kickstarter marketing campaign is completed.

Calling it the “world’s first digital dropper submit conversion,” OnlyMotion pairs a wi-fi distant with an digital actuator that mounts to the underside of your current seat submit. Greater than upgrading current posts, OnlyMotion claims it’s a lighter system than most wi-fi droppers as nicely, with a declare of 125g lower than the SRAM Reverb AXS (together with battery, with out distant).

The small battery hidden inside your seat tube is nice for 150 hours of journey time, or about 4,000 activations and fees with a USB-C wire in about 10 minutes. As an alternative of getting to take away the dropper submit from the body to cost it, there may be an actuator cost cable that’s plugged into the distant, and then you definitely plug within the USB-C cable to the distant to cost. As soon as charged, the actuator cable shops within the body, with the tip poking out of the dropper submit cable opening.

With a diameter of 30.7mm, the actuator is is designed to suit bikes with 30.9mm seat posts and up. They advocate following the OneUp seat submit sizing and subtracting a customized measurement. Or, you’ll be able to 3D print a check dummy, connect it to your submit and double examine earlier than ever ordering something.

At the moment it appears that evidently the OnlyMotion actuator will match the OneUp V2 and V3, Fox Switch, Bontrager Fall Line, and Race Face Turbine R dropper posts. Pricing is at the moment supplied at about $174 via the Kickstarter, which is much cheaper than the $399 msrp.
