ABOUT US:
We’ve all experienced the beauty of the trail or the freedom of the open road. For many, cycling presents a world of possibilities and opportunities at every turn. At Jenson USA, our passion for cycling sprouted back in 1994 and has since taken root and grown into a community of people devoted to living life to its fullest. We're building a culture of people who respect each other, set the pace, and lead through service. We strive daily to better serve our customers, our fellow employees, and our community. Over the years we’ve found that happy people are hardworking people, and that the time we spend on two wheels together builds the greatest profit of all.
We all approach life with different stories and special experiences that have shaped us into who we are as individuals. Deep down, it's a love of adventure that brings us together, inspires us to push the limits of what we are capable of, and daily rediscover the freedom found when we first started pedaling.
thanks, clear explanations on this matter finally!
Im doing a school project and this helped me thank you
Clearest explanation of this topic so far! Thank you.
Great video, 👍
Great job, guys! The explanation should be easy to follow for pretty much anyone.
A video on y'alls favorite mini pumps would be Awesome! Currently trying to decide and there's very little info on this. Great vids!!🤙🤙
That's a great idea! In the meantime, I'll give you my favorite (Seth from the videos). Hands down, my go-to pump is the OneUp Components EDC Pump. Not the lightest, but not heavy, carries tools and other gear that I need on the trail/road, air flow is awesome, and has reduced my need to carry other stuff in pockets or bags. I use it on all my bikes. Bigger size for MTB, smaller for road/gravel.
Cheers, S.
@@jensonusabicycles awesome man thankyou! And one more thing is shock pumps maybe a video idea. And any suggestion would be great as there Is no info on accurate shock pumps and I'm the type who would rather buy a quality product one time than a few junk ones. And thankyou again!!🤙🤙
Watched the video which was very informative then tried on three different occasions in 2 days to place an order on your website. Everything was fine until I typed in my address and then hit the save and continue button. Kept getting error messages so i submitted a online chat request no one responded. I even tried calling to place an order but wait times where ridiculously long so I placed my order with another vendor. Never received any feed back at all which made the whole experience a complete disappointment. In the future I will just place orders elsewhere.
Hey Brad,
This is Seth (from the video). Bummed to hear that we dropped the ball with your shopping experience. We've recently implemented a major software overhaul that has introduced some bugs in the system. We are working as fast as we can to identify them and fix them with as few hiccups to our customers as possible. I would love the chance to make this right for you and to see if we can identify the issues that you experienced so that we can correct them ASAP. Please email me (skendall@jensonusa.com) your name and any other information that will let me look into your experience.
Cheers, S.
Anyone have a suggestion on hydraulic vs. cabled actuation? Which is better for a dropper post?
The general leaning of most riders is towards cable actuated posts. This is primarily due to the simplicity of the system . A cable actuated setup uses a standard shift cable/housing and can allow you to choose your favorite remote to pair with your dropper. They are also super easy to setup or maintain. Hope that helps! Keep Pedaling.
Does dropper post act as an elastomer or just do up and down in the seat tube to change its height from the rider to the saddle height ?
It just goes up and down to change height, there are no bending traits as an extra feature. It's use is to get the seat out of the way on downhills then you pop it back up when you're getting ready to climb/pedal again.
He forgot to add that the dropper post comes on new bikes yes but only bikes that are thousands of dollars
The more travel the better?
Rule number one, don t choose a Reverb 😂
Why?
Jose Muniz it just doesn’t go well, my bike came with one, after one summer, it had to go through warranty, and even after that, it s not working well. The lever sucks as well. I would buy a cable activated instead.

Do they make dropper post for 90's GT bikes
Hey Michael! Yes, most likely. You will likely need an externally routed remote dropper post and you will need to confirm the seat post diameter that will work with your frame. You can use our filters on our dropper post page to narrow down your search or give our Gear Advisors a call (888-880-3811) and they will be able to help get you dialed.
