This is the lightest infinitely adjustable dropper post on the market. Even lighter than 2-position XC specific lightweight posts and suitable for all rider heights, weights and riding styles. Save an additional 10g with the Ti Bolt Upgrade Kit.
This is the best feeling dropper you’ll ever ride. It takes 75% less actuation force to drop your saddle, it has ultra low-friction, self-lubricating igus® bushings and a low friction SKF® wiper seal keep the V3 running smoother for longer, with less maintenance.
A simple and reliable low-maintenance design is insanely easy to work on at home using only the OneUp EDC multi-tool or three standard tools (14mm wrench, 2mm & 5mm hex). Plus, it has a super long, 350-hour interval between recommended services.
Whether you ride an XS or XXL, the V3 is the longest post that will fit your bike. It has the shortest stack height and shortest total length of any other post and offers 20mm of adjustable travel. Use our Dropper Post Length Selector to find your perfect post. Easy.
Every rider is different, with different frames and rider inseams, etc. Your best bet is to use our Dropper Post Length Selector. You will need: Your current ride height, the distance from the top of the seat post collar to the middle of your saddle rails. Maximum Frame Insertion measurement. You can find this by inserting a rigid post or tape measure into your frame until it hits an obstruction. Simply plug those into the calculator and we'll give you our recommendation of dropper length based on those measurements.
We recommend you do an upper bushing clean-and-grease every 25hrs of riding, a full clean and grease service every 75-100hrs of riding, and a full rebuild every 250-350hrs of riding.
Most likely, yes.
If your dropper remote is cable clamping (has a bolt to clamp the cable) then yes, it is compatible with our dropper. If your remote does not have a cable clamp bolt, you can purchase the Dropper cable/nut kit. It comes with a cable bushing that can clamp a cable. With this you can set up any none cable clamping remote.
Yes, our seat clamps are fully compatible with 7x9mm & 7x10mm carbon seat rails.
The orientation of the actuator is dependant on the threads in the lower tube. This means the actuator orientation, once tightened up, is arbitrary and different on every post. The actuator orientation cannot be changed without rotating the lower tube on the guide pins.
There can be a few different reasons for slow dropper extension. The first checks should always be:
If your posts continues to extend slowly then please email us at support@oneupcomponents.com and we will help resolve your situation.
We do not have upper and lower tubes available as single items.
OneUp droppers should be serviced using a light suspension grease. All droppers come with a small packet of Slickoleum, but any light suspension grease will do the trick. We do not recommend any lubes, including fork boost on our droppers.
A minimum rider weight of 50lbs is required to fully compress the post.
Make sure to apply force to the nose of your saddle, if you're close to that minimum!

"Doesn’t seem to work as good as the Trans X post that I replaced it with. The top out is inconsistent, maybe it will get better with use. Time will tell whether it lasts as long as the trans X post. I’ve only had it for a couple of weeks and it was sticky right out of the box."
"great dropper, easy to install, delivered very fast. Everything I've ordered from OneUp has been top notch!"
"This dropper post has worked out great for me. Simple, easy to install and use. I replaced an AXS dropper with this and don't miss it."
"Great quality! This thing just gets smoother. Actuates fast and gives me no headaches. I have the 210mm and it is fully inserted in my large Commencal tempo."
"Super quick action, wish I'd made the decision to change my dropper years ago"
"Love the small improvements over the v2. At first I was scared of the closed cartridge, but it's been working flawlessly for over a full season at the moment. There's also much less bushing play when compared to the v2 and the remote feel is super light."
"Second V3 I've owned and I've also owned two V2s on other bikes. They're light, smooth and very low profile (maximum extension vs insertion depth. Giggity) I've never had a failure and the cartridge on my 1st V3 dropper is still performing as new after 2yrs of use."
"Never have a issue with V3"
"Fantastique lors des randonnées en montagne"
"Great product, was easy to install and works well so far (couple weeks in). I've followed this installation guide ***www.youtube.***/watch?v=v4N5x5YxnVc"
