Loam Dropper Seatpost

Replacing the PNW Bachelor Dropper Post, the Loam Dropper brings many of the same features we loved on the Bachelor with great frame compatibility and a lighter weight. A redesigned stanchion allows less of the post to be inserted in the frame, so more frames can accommodate the dropper post and riders can run a post with more travel. Like the Rainer Gen 3, the new Loam Dropper allows you to customize the suspension travel by reducing the travel up to 25mm in 5mm increments. Finally, an updated actuator boasts PNW's smoothest action ever for better overall ride quality as you hit the trail.

Awesome dropper

Familiarity:
I've used it several times

Awesome dropper with great adjustability. Light too at 462g on my scale in 30.9mm size with 125mm of travel. Hopefully will never need it, but the lifetime warranty is exceptional. On the trail it works perfectly with a snappy return.

Works well so far

Familiarity:
I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Works well but only used a few times. Let's hope it stays that way. Tried others well known brands but was disappointed.

A great alternative to a Fox Transfer

The PNW loam dropper is fantastic. The price point is much lower compared to competitors, like Fox. Installation was very simple. I also really enjoyed the tool free micro adjust. This is great for frames with tricky insertion depth.

Simply works every time!

I've used it several times

This is the best dropper I have owned yet. PNW you have made a life long supporter out of me. Easy to install, love the fine tuning of the travel that you can do. quiet, works every time, speed is great, cable actuated, and customizable colors, you can't go wrong! I am stoked at how well this works on my Foes Mixer, size Medium

Rattles Like Empty Beer Can

Familiarity:
I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Size Bought:
34.9 x 200mm

Had high hopes for this dropper. First ride out it rattles terribly at full extension. That's a non-starter right there. Second, the lever feel is stiffer than other posts I've used. I'd steer clear as QC seems nonexistent. Returning..
