What is DropLoc™ Technology?

DropLoc™ is a dropper seatpost technology developed by 9point8™ to meet the need for a simpler, lighter, infinite-adjust dropper post. This technology was first introduced at Interbike in Las Vegas, September 2014, in the 9point8™ Fall Line™ dropper post. The Fall Line dropper post received enthusiastic press at the show, earning a spot on two ‘Best in Show’ lists.

It is released from below, providing the much sought-after ‘stealth’ cable routing through the bicycle frame. Because it is inside the top tube, it is protected from the elements and is well away from trail dirt and grime.

DropLoc™ technology is protected, and has a patents applied-for.
