KS adds a new bargain priced dropper seatpost, called the eTen, for 2013. Total travel is set at 100mm and it will be offered in both manual and remote versions. Costs range from US$150 to $US175KS's LEV dropper post continues to be an appealing option for 2013 courtesy of its slick fixed cable actuation, relatively light weight and infinitely adjustable two-bolt headThe tidy KS remote can be integrated into the end of an ODI lock-on grip or mounted soloKS's display bike sported this tidy strap-on fender but don't get too excited about it. As it turns out, someone else already had a patent on such a thing, so KS was limited to only giving them away at the Eurobike Demo DayView Thumbnail Gallery

Mountain bikers looking for the technical advantages of a dropper postwithout the price tag of one of the higher-end options now have a budget option from KS.

The new eTen seatpost offers 100mm ofdrop via air sprung and hydraulically locked internals similar to the company'sflagship LEV seatposts.

However, whereas the LEV has its guts built directly into the aluminumstanchion, the eTen uses a separate sealed steel cartridge for easiermanufacturing. Also, the eTen uses a more basic microadjustable single-boltseatpost head, as opposed to the LEV's twin-bolt setup.

Not surprisingly, the eTen is also quite a bit heavier at 643-723gdepending on size. But on the upside it's also quite inexpensive. The cableactuated remote version is just US$175, while the manual variant is cheaperstill at only US$150.
