Are you sure on an S5? Mathematically it should have 230.
Kenevo SL Has anyone changed their dropper post on their Kenevo SL?

Is there any dropper that fits snug or would I have to go straight post?Actually it has 252 max insertion.
210 = 282 insertion.
The measurement above was 110 over seat collar with 210 oneup and S3 frame.
Should actually be 132. So I guess actual max insertion is a bit more than what geo chart says.

You obviously didn't count that?
True. Didn't count that. My fault.
110 over seat collar actually is around 100mm in his photo - with 210 one up this actually means 297 insertion length including the actuator - 100 = 197 inserted into an S3 frame. Wow. That's 47mm above geo chart.
Can anyone add more reallife measurements to this thread?
The calculation above would suggest the 180 would almost sit snug inside an S5 frame, being 3cm shorter top and bottom, leaving only 2cm exposed for a total height of 243mm above seat collar Max. Don't know if this will be enough.
Think I'll order a 210 and a 180 and try it out. 210 adds at least 4cm total height fully extended when shimmed to 190. This (283) might be too much on the other hand.
Reverb AXS 170 would be interesting too. 245 insertion isn't too bad and would sit snug inside S5 frame. Having no actuator max insertion into KSL frame might be lower though. Don't know how tight things are down there

Hopefully this will help:
I have a 210 shimmed to 200 On an S3. From the top of the seat collar to the center of the seat rails, measuring inline with the center of the seat post, is 325mm of exposed post. The seat post is inserted as far as it will go into the seat tube. If my inseam were any shorter I would have to go to a 180 post. You should be able to measure from the top of seat clamp to center of seat rail as your bike is set up now. If you have less than 325mm the 210 won‘t work for you.
Short update on this topic: OneUp 210 on my S5 KSL isn't working unfortunately. Shimmed down to 190 it might propably work, but I decided to go with a BikeYoke Revive 185 instead. Sooooo smooth this thing... crazy. It's even better than my 170 AXS Reverb on the Levo. Actuationwise of course not - but it isn't bad at all and the post has 15mm more travel - that's something on the downhills.

I had oneup 210 on a size S4 KSL (no pics unfortunately, bike is sold). I'm 188cm tall and I had it inserted all the way in. Distance from the BB to *top* of saddle where the post line meets the top of the saddle is 32 inches. HTH
BTW as you probably know you can lower travel on oneup by upto 20mm so if you're off by that the post would still work
