Description

What is a Redshift "Scratch and Dent" product:

That means that for whatever reason, this particular product didn’t live up to our high standard of quality, but is still perfectly safe to ride - and therefore available to you for a discount!

There may be a cosmetic issue, damage to the outer packaging, or the product was installed on a bike to test fit or take some photos. Often times these products are completely new!

Scratch and Dent products are not available in the UK, EU, AUS, CAN, and JPN. Additionally, you can not apply discounts to Scratch and Dent products.

NOTE: Physical performance & durability are not compromised in any way so all Scratch and Dent products are still covered by our lifetime warranty, however ALL SALES ARE FINAL, and our 90 Day Risk Free Trial does not apply.

Product Description: The minimal design of the ShockStop Seatpost blends seamlessly with the aesthetic of modern gravel, road, and e-bikes. Along with the ShockStop Stem and ShockStop PRO Stem, this system works together to reduce fatigue and strain, letting you ride further, faster, and more comfortably.

Benefits:

• Race-Tuned - elastomers provide a progressive spring rate that lets the suspension work effortlessly to absorb the buzz that is the "background noise" of gravel riding, while still providing a firm foundation to maximize power delivered to the pedals. Much like the elastomer-based ShockStop Suspension Stem, the PRO seatpost RT disappears into the background, letting you stay in control and focused on the ride, all while leaving you less fatigued after every ride.
• PRO Level - 25% weight reduction (130 grams!) from standard ShockStop Seatpost and ultra-sleek styling
• Go further - reducing fatigue from bumps and vibrations
• Ride faster - energy that is normally wasted suspending your body is converted into forward motion
• Take control - float over obstacles and maintain control

Details:

• The ShockStop Seatpost is available in two length options:
            - 280mm and 350mm
• 20mm of active suspension travel
• Race-Tuned progressive spring rate elastomers
• Optimized linkage geometry provides ultra-responsive suspension feel
• Check technical specifications for compatibility

What's in the Box:

• 1 x ShockStop PRO Suspension Seatpost RT
• All required hardware

Different bikes sometimes have different seatpost diameters. The ShockStop Seatpost is 27.2mm in diameter, so if your bike's seatpost is larger, you'll need a shim to adapt our seatpost to your bike's frame. Don't worry though, the shims are super-lightweight and essentially invisible once installed.

Not sure what size seatpost you have currently? There are a couple different ways to find out.

Most seatposts have the diameter printed somewhere near the bottom of the post. You'll need to remove the seatpost from the bike frame (mark your existing seatpost height with a bit of tape before you remove it so you can replace it easily), and look for a number like 27.2, 30.9, or 31.6 (etc.). That is the diameter of the post.
If you know the make, model, and year of your bike, you may be able to look up the seatpost diameter online. Feel free to shoot us an email at info@redshiftsports.com - we'll see if we can help out.
Ask your local bike shop - they'll be able to accurately measure your bike's seatpost.


Non-compatible posts: Unfortunately, if your bike's seatpost is smaller than 27.2mm (for example, the 25.4mm posts found on some recent model Cannondale Synapses) our seatpost is currently not compatible with your bike. Likewise, if you have a bike with an aero/oval/non-round seatpost, or if your bike has an integrated seatmast, the seatpost is also not compatible.

What length should I choose? 350mm or 280mm?

350mm is our standard size, but we developed the 280mm to allow for a wider range of fits. Measure your current seatpost from the clamp collar to the saddle rail - If that distance is less than 205mm, you can use the 280mm seatpost. If not, order the 350mm size.

Bought this post because of the AWFUL Chicago streets, and I am overjoyed at it's performance. I love that it is adjustable, feels extremely well-made, and enhances the look of my e-bike. Thank you for such a thoughtful product, my butt especially thanks you.

Money well spent!

This is a great addition to my gravel bike. It took a few adjustments to get the right elastomers but, it definitely smooths out the ride. Will be purchasing a set for my road bike.

Scott C

This seat post is a game changer!! Absolutely love it on my gravel bike .gonna get one for my hard tail Mtb now

Love the stem!! It really takes out all the worse bumps from your ride, and on rough trails really did offer a smooth comfortable ride.

Lawrence C

I hesitated buying this stem wondering would it work, was it a waste of money but I’ve had three off road rides with my new stem and I love it. I usually get pins and needles in my hands after riding for a while but that’s gone now. Added to the comfort is the improved handling on bumpy tracks and roads. I can ride a corrugated road now without feeling like I will get shaken off the bike. Very happy.

I love my Redshift post! I recently had a lumbar contusion and the post has smoothed and cushioned the roads and trails. I’m able to stay on the bike while healing.

Ian S

After much thought I bought a red shift suspension stem and initial thoughts are that it's good, think they will become standard across all my gravel bikes.

I just finished my first ride with the Resdhift Shockstop Suspension Stem and I noticed the difference immediately. Having ridden for many years with rigid front ends (I’m 64) I now wish I had discovered this earlier in my life. The chatter that it removes from my wrists, arms and shoulders is easily noticed. This experience has been so good that now I’m considering the seatpost Redshift offers as well. The interesting thing for me is that I’ve promoted and sold these products for years based upon input from others. I just didn’t think I needed one myself. Get yourself one! You’ll never go back.

The shock absorber was easy to install and works as described cuts down on the impact. I recommend it if you're going to do gravel, writing and bumpy bumpy roads

Karlos R

Wow, once I got the fit dialed on this seat post I thoroughly understood why everyone was upgrading their set ups with these products. Riding a long distances is what I do for fun and for a living and this seatpost made all the difference in the world. Pay attention to the recommended Sag settings as its key to finding comfort and keeping a proper pedaling extension. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Awesome product, fits where a carbon post won't

This is a great product. I originally looked at a carbon seat post to absorb vibration, but didn't have enough exposed seat post for it to work. With the Shockstop post, all of the compliance is handled in a compact area just below the seat. Unless your seat post is set really low, you should have room for this.

My bike just hurt, so I didn't ride it

I recently purchased the seatpost and stem - both pro versions. They were worth every penny. Prior to installing them I just didn't ride anymore because I didn't want to put my aging body through the repeated abuse of riding the local roads. But now the post and stem do well to absorb the usual road vibrations and shock of bumps. I am back in the saddle again. Go Redshift go.
