Product Information

Full details

The SDG Tellis V2 Dropper Post is an engineered solution for mountain bikers seeking a low-profile, reliable seatpost that maximizes saddle clearance. Its standout feature is the patent-pending low stack height head, which provides 10mm of additional clearance compared to the original, making it an excellent choice for riders who struggle with frame-to-seat height limitations. While it offers industry-leading durability through its sealed cartridge and IGUS bushing system, riders should note that precise travel adjustment requires manual installation of the included shims.

FAQs

Does this post work with all mountain bikes?

This post is compatible with frames featuring internal routing for dropper posts. Always check your frame's seat tube diameter to ensure it matches the 31.6mm specification.

How do I change the travel distance?

You can use the provided 5mm, 10mm, or 20mm shims inside the post to reduce the total travel to your preferred length.

Can I perform a full service on the Wintek cartridge?

The Wintek cartridge is a sealed unit designed for reliability and is generally replaced rather than serviced internally if it fails.

How often should I clean the stanchion?

Wiping down the stanchion after every ride is recommended to prevent dirt from migrating past the Trelleborg seal.

What is the primary benefit of the low stack head?

The low stack head provides 10mm of extra clearance, which is critical for riders who require more drop or ride frames with limited seatpost insertion depth.

Troubleshooting

Saddle head play or wobble

Check if the internal polycarbonate keyway system or copper shims have worn down or shifted and re-seat them.

Post is slow to return

Verify that your cable tension is not too tight and check the seatpost collar torque, as over-tightening can pinch the housing.

Side bolts are difficult to access

Ensure you are using a standard 4mm or 5mm hex key with a ball-end, which allows for easier access at slight angles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly lower stack height for better clearance
  • Easy-access side bolts simplify seat angle adjustments
  • Durable sealed cartridge design reduces maintenance frequency
  • High-quality copper shims minimize rotational play
  • Includes shims for customizable travel length

Cons

  • Travel adjustment requires disassembly of the head
  • Internal routing compatibility is required for the frame
  • Higher initial stiffness may feel different than lightweight alloy posts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Tellis V2 requires an internally routed frame. Ensure your seat tube is clean and free of debris before insertion. When tightening the seat collar, ensure it is torqued to your manufacturer's specific settings to avoid binding the stanchion.

Care Instructions

  • Regularly clean the stanchion with a soft, lint-free cloth after muddy rides.
  • Apply a light suspension-specific lubricant to the seal area to keep the Trelleborg main seal supple.
  • Periodically check the side-access bolts for tightness using a hex key.
  • If the post develops slight play over time, inspect the internal keyway system for debris accumulation.
