This one is grasping at cables .... but, is it possible the cable is set slightly too tight, so it's just on the verge of activating ? Then a certain bump/handlebar motion tensions the cable the tiny bit it needs to activate ??

Does anyone know why my command post on my 18 Levo sometimes drops on its own. Very annoying!


Probably because the seat height was adjusted up without pushing more cable into the frame, so the dropper post lever is partway pulled down and the dropper is going up and down kinda on its own terms.

I like to throw in a curve ball once in a while :p

but not too often ......... I have a reputation to uphold ? downhold ? how does that work ? :unsure:

I think I might have damaged my brain though .. My last two rides were road/green lanes in an unscientific experiment too see how much difference locking your suspension made to average speed if you went as fast as possible over 25km's... 6% .. but I got so bored on the second "locked" test that I used Turbo a bit more ... so probably more like 3% ... Though on one climb I was 1 second faster and on another I was 2 seconds slower .. see - unscientific .. So I'll stick to my usual plan and just leave it open as I have a motor, so who cares :) and not ride on roads and green lanes .. because, well .. it doesn't get the blood pumping in the same way as bouncing off rocks with your body. :)
