just wondering if anyone has managed to fit a longer dropper than the stock 170mm Manic in a Large Optic carbon? Specifically, I'm wondering if the new PNW Loam dropper or the 213mm Bikeyoke Revive will fit. Any thoughts before I buy something that'll be hard for me to exchange/sell if I get it wrong?
If it helps, my stock manic has 260mm from the top of the frame to the saddle rails at full height...

Cheers, and thanks in advance, Steve :-)
Easiest way to be sure is to get out a tape measure and get the measurements yourself! PNW has a good guide on how to do that https://www.pnwcomponents.com/blogs/news/how-to-size-a-dropper-post

Thanks mate, I did already look at that; it's going to be very close by my measurements, hence why I wanted to see if anyone had actually tried it.
Under the circumstances, I might hold off until there's a new, longer Manic available...
I just recently bought a seat post from a guy that was able to fully slam a OneUp post in a large Optic frame. I believe that fully hilted length of 297mm inserted into the frame. HTH
