Kinekt 2.1 Aluminum Seat Suspension Post Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- The Kinekt Suspension Seat Post by Cirrus Cycles is a high quality seat suspension system based on a parallelogram design which moves with the whole body as the rider pedals over all types of terrain, providing a better connection from the rider to the surface and with the bike as a whole. Founder Paul Barkley was inspired by the isolation concept of the Softbike ride design and built a prototype of his idea to test on the dirt roads of Uganda. Yielding improved comfort and performance over long distance trails and road trips. There are two models available: Aluminum for $249.99 and a Carbon Fiber version for $329.99 offering lighter weight and less vibration while riding.
This seat post provides lots of support and shock absorption which would normally be traveling up and absorbed by the spine. This post is ideal for road riders that want extra vibration & shock support while going over bumps, uneven road & other bouncy obstructions. For mountain bike riders, adjust the seat to the lowest level for maximum cushioning to help you over rough uneven terrain and land your jumps more comfortably. This is a great addition to a hard tail mountain bike and maneuvering into patches where the feet and butt can be bucked off from all the energy that travels up into the back, shoulders and arms.
These posts can be installed on all seats and styles of bikes. Each one is made to the size of the bike's seat post diameter which you send to Cirrus when placing your order for a proper fit. With a low setting of one going up to eight for a tighter response to going over bumps and obstacles, it is fully adjustable to each rider;'s preferences. This seat post is adaptable to E-Bikes, Road Bikes, Hybrid & Mountain, Folding and Cruisers too!

Thank you for this really clear explaining and showing while in use!😊
Thanks for the close ups of the actual bounce /absorption in action. Lot of reviewers out there preferring to show their own faces as opposed to what counts. Good commentary. Thanks 👍
You are welcome! Yes focus on the bike or item being featured is the main objective so you can get a true perspective of how it may work for you!
best quality seat post currently on the market
For price and quality, the Kinekt 2.1 Aluminum Seat Suspension Post is hard to beat!
Thanks for the info. Good to see the up down in action. I’m no lightweight so will get the XL and long post (420mm?) for folding Aventon Sinch e-bike. I already have the sleeve, Aventon’s are odd diameter, 30.4mm from memory. Love my step through e-bike with retiree aged rickety legs!!! Spine wants less shocks. With this, probably could put more air in fat tires and reduce rolling resistance, therefore, further before battery depleted. I sure would appreciate if like $150. This is a bite. But if more comfort, less pain……. Does it SQUEAK ?? Will it make noises 3 years from now??
The action should not squeak unless some kind of debris got into it which is not likely to happen. They can also be replaced if you find it has worn out after a while.
@@radicalelectricmotorcycles Thanks.. I bit the cost bullet and ordered one. Hope 4 best.
Amazing review 👍
Hi! Did you tried in the top of stiffer? In the maximum tightness? It’s because I want a mix into street 70% and mountain 30%. And you know, in large street it’s better a like no suspension at all…
This seat post will work for both street and mountain, make sure you get the right size for your bike by measuring the seat post diameter :)
Wish I knew there was two different models. I’m more than 250 lbs :/ now I have to wait for the xl and paid more shipping for the other one to get here faster
Everything is a learning experience my friend, it will be worth the wait! Having the correct equipment for each riders needs is crucial for everyone's safety and enjoyment of an E-Bike :)

I wish to know what are those sides Allen keys do for ? Should i loosing them or what . I tried to unscrew the back Allen key because it came very stiff but nothing happen until i loosen out those side Allen keys . But should be loosen or tighten ? That is the question . Because I dont want to lose them on the street . Thanks for showing us .
Hi Mario,
The center screw is the only one you need to adjust for tension tuning. I would leave the other keys alone as they hold the unit together.
I recommend sitting on the bike to see how it behaves under your weight and adjust accordingly. Let me know how this goes!
23.5 or 25.4 inch diameter seatpost? That's honking huge! Methinks you mean 25.4mm.
Yes that is correct 👍
Max. rider weight limit?
that would be 249 usd dollars not canadian right
Yes usd, this is the aluminum version for $249, carbon is $329 👍
Amazon 249.
I might get one of these for my wife but she keeps her seat right at about four inches of seatpost between her seat and the frame. Do you think the Kinekt will work for her.
So long as you note the diameter of your seat post, Kinekt will fulfill your requirements for a smooth ride :)
Radical will be adding Kinekt suspension products soon for riders who want extra relief & support on their ride on trails, roads & bumpy terrain 👍
@@radicalelectricmotorcycles I was trying to find out the total height of the suspension mechanism in inches. Thanks anyway though. I will try and find the answer somewhere else. You either didn't understand the question or are unwilling answer it for some reason. Not a problem.
@@jmac4952 I see! Thank you for understanding, I misinterpreted your question.
The suspension rests with about 3 inches of maximum travel, and depending on the strength of the spring being used this will travel less down the post for a more firm option if desired. 👍
Is is just travel that is of concern? Please add any other comments so I can get you the information you need 👊
@@radicalelectricmotorcycles Hey thanks. I appreciate that.
@@jmac4952 Anytime my friend, let us know if you want to know more or have any other questions! 😊👍
Does it fit non e bikes?
Yes it will! Make sure you know your seat post size and dimensions as each post is made to fit each bike to order⚡
@@radicalelectricmotorcycles OK thanks! I am considering getting a seat post suspension because the pathways and trails I ride on are very bumpy and I feel like I am going to get thrown of the seat especially when I approach the bumps at high speed.
@@jaslueasi554 Good idea! These seat posts and handlebar systems are great performers and can be adjusted to be soft or harder resistance depending on the terrain.
is too expensive for me 😭 my mtb bike is around 350$
It’s great when you want to get rid of your own fingers or a person who is bothering you 😂😂😂😂😂😂
No es asequible para los trabajadores de Suramérica $$$$$$$$
Es una buena inversión.
Elimina la tensión de las muñecas, la espalda y el cuello para una experiencia más cómoda 👍
At $250.00 I'll pass.
A bobble-head seat post. LOL! What crap. Buy a decent ebike and a great seat and you won't need to waste money trying to make it rideable.
For people who want extra comfort, I don't see how that can be an issue! I've used this seat post and compared with my regular pipes and I can tell you this works very well, if you don't need it don't buy it! 😊
@@radicalelectricmotorcycles Reccomending something lame to others just because you actually "need it" to be comfortable on your bike is... well, as lame as the item itself. Do more research next time and you won't need to waste a couple hundred dollars on a silly toy and then troll for thumbs-up on RUclips, Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook. If you ever want to own a real ebike rather than recommending cheap crap to others for pennies then let me know. Stay safe.
@@brianbassett4379 Have a nice day! 👍
@@brianbassett4379 so i have been debating if i should get a seat post or just a saddle because my butt was very sore. So you think a good quality cushiony seat will solve that?
@@Stoicexpression Finding the right seat for your butt is of the utmost importance but you might still want a suspended seat post, but replacing the seat is the right place to start. I started with a traditional Brooks leather saddle and got tired of worrying about, and maintaining it so I got a Selle SMP Martin Touring saddle. What I disagree with is people trying to tell you (sell you) that a suspended seat post is as good as a suspended bike so they can make a few pennies for themselves. Good luck Mr. Lee. - photos.app.goo.gl/V311AZaZUa97JDRs9
