PATENTED DUAL-POSITION SEATPOSTS – The patented Redshift Dual-Position Seatpost for bicycles allows you to switch between two seatpost positions: road and triathlon positions while riding your bike. Innovative bike accessories optimized for triathlon and long distance riders.
SWITCH FROM ROAD TO AERO POSITION – The Dual-Position bike seatpost allows you to switch between road and aero positions on the fly during your ride. Transform the road bike you already own into a triathlon riding position for proper fit with aero bars.
RIDE WITH EASE MORE COMFORTABLY – The key to riding comfortably is proper positioning of your bike saddle. This bike seatpost allows you to ride with a proper aero bike fit on a standard road bike, so you can ride faster and more comfortably.
ENSURES PROPER LEG EXTENSION – This seatpost for bikes is designed to maintain the same pedal-to-saddle length in both positions, ensuring proper leg extension in the road and aero riding positions.
COMPATIBLE WITH – The seat post is 27.2 mm in diameter by 350 mm in length. Shims (sold separately) can be used to adapt the seatpost to bikes with larger seatpost diameters. The bike seat post accepts saddles with standard round 7 mm saddle rails.
Description
The patent pending Redshift Sports 2-position seat post allows you to switch your saddle between a normal road bike position and a time trial position as set up on a triathlon bike while driving. The steeper effective angle between saddle and tube bar opens your hip angle and maintains a reasonable leg extension, which makes you ride comfortably and powerfully in the time trial position. Are you driving a long flat track with headwind? Push the saddle forward and lie in the aerodynamic time trial position that beats a snip to the wind. Torturing yourself on a steep climb? Slide the saddle back and switch comfortably to the road bike position. The seat post is designed to maintain the same distance between saddle and pedal in both positions, ensuring adequate leg extension in the road bike and time trial position. Because some riders prefer more forward tilt of the saddle while riding in the aerodynamic time trial position, the seat post also has an additional adjustment that tilts the saddle forward up to five degrees when you switch from the road bike to the time trial position. The mechanism is completely stable in both positions - a spring-loaded stop keeps it securely in place until you decide to change your position. The 2-position seat post - in combination with the Redshift Sports quick-release aerole handlebar grips (not included). - puts you in a truly integrated aerodynamic time trial position without compromising your normal road bike setup. The seat post is constructed from an aviation grade 6061-T6 aluminium alloy. The tube has a diameter of 27.2 mm and a length of 350 mm. With clamps (not included), the seat post can be adapted to bikes with larger saddle tube diameter. The seat post is suitable for saddles with standard 7mm round saddle frame. The seat post weighs 400 g including all components.
