RJ was our tail guide when we used Mandil's guiding company to check out Nepal. RJ was absolutely sending it on a horribly clapped out bike, but every time we stopped he had the biggest shit eating grin on his face with how stoked he was. The trip was unreal, but getting to share the trails with this kid having the time of his life made it even better. So stoked to see how far RJ has gone and can't wait to see what the future holds for him! Also, everyone should take at least one trip to Nepal with Mandil's guiding outfit. It's still by far my favorite riding trip I've ever been able to do. For me the quality of people, landscape and trail in Nepal can't be beat.

We’ve got a full fitment chart on our website under “support” that’ll give you all the measurements of your wildest dreams. Send us a PM if you can’t find the exact measurements you’re after and we can sort you out.

OneUp has always made a great product and I'm sure their dropper will be no exception. If you're looking for a longer drop post and worried about fitment theirs seems like a great choice. Our post is aimed at those that want an extremely simple post that just works with no BS. Furthermore, in the event that shit happens, we offer top tier partners all over the world with small parts already in stock. Us thinking that we're going to appeal to every customer would be a "massive fail".

The top clamp and hardware is our own tooling so it's definitely not the same. Actuator is different as well. We took many off the shelf parts that worked fairly well and tweaked them to offer improvements (improved sealing capacity and additional seal at actuator for example) where need be. While we'd love to do a completely custom post, for us it made no sense as that would drive the cost through the roof and really offer no foreseeable benefits. We're not in the business of charging more money for a rebranded product, but rather offering something that improves on current offering abd backing it up with availability of spare parts, Simple service videos already available and top notch partners all over the globe.

@DC1988: We can (and have) design in a flex channel that offers plenty of compliance with the I-Beam system. Most people are familiar with our I-Fly 2.0 saddles which are race specific saddles that offer no compliance as they're purpose built to be super light and minimalist. However, it's fairly easy to design an I-Beam system that'll offer ample compliance, yet still have all the benefits of I-Beam (weight, easy adjustments, creak free, massive fore/aft adjustment, etc.).

@Abite: Hate to break it to you, but the only similarity the Tellis shares with Brand X would be that they are both cable actuated posts.

It is definitely not manufactured by Giant. We utilized some of the internals already utilized by other brands in the market and improved on what we found was lacking with improved sealing capacity, detailed service videos and the strongest global partners to support the sales and support.

Certainly on our radar and eventually will offer one. I-Beam has so many benefits over railed that it'd certainly be an improvement over rails. We wanted to first introduce the Tellis and build a solid reputation first for durability, simplicity and industry's softest lever feel. After it's proven itself in the market, you can bet we plan on offering an I-Beam head and expanding our I-Beam saddle collection.
