SDG - TELLIS V2 DROPPER SEATPOST
loading..
Simple to install and simple to maintain, the Tellis distills a dropper post to it’s very basics. It goes up and it goes down, drop after drop, without hesitation. So simple, it fades away into the background and just does what it was designed to do without needing to be worried about. One of the most reliable and trusted seatposts in the business just got even better: welcome to the next-generation Tellis V2
The new Tellis V2 features a new patent-pending low stack height head (10mm lower than the original Tellis) as well as easy side-access bolts. The 3D forged head, part of the I-Beam cradle design, combines a stronger 26mm stanchion to improve stiffness and overall durability, and reduce overlap. Available in 30.9, 31.6 and 34.9mm diameters, the Tellis V2 provides one of the largest dropper travel ranges in the game - 55mm to 230mm.
Durability was the foundation that Tellis was designed upon. With IGUS bushings, a sealed Wintek cartridge and Trelleborg main seal, the Tellis virtually does away with maintenance problems experienced by other seat posts. Put simply, fewer moving parts means fewer chances for failure. The updated and improved polycarbonate keyway system now includes lower copper shims to further increase durability and keep head play at bay, while still retaining its smooth stroke feel. Additionally, the new, simple to use travel adjustment shims come available in 5, 10 or 20mm, and are included with every Tellis V2. They offer the rider the option to reduce travel heights for optimal fitment. The low stack-height head is part of a combination of design changes that allow for a more personal fit for every rider. The side-access bolts allow for quick, on the fly saddle adjustments while on the trail. And the new 5mm reduced height actuator provides improved overall fitment and more post travel on a wider variety of frames.
When you do decide to give the post some love, the Tellis V2 is designed to be easily serviceable at home with no proprietary tools. The entire post can be removed and torn down in under five minutes, even by the most inexperienced of mechanics and at no cost.
“I’ve been riding the Tellis V1 for quite some time now and never had any issue with it, it was already super durable. Now with the Tellis V2, we have a dropper that’s way more compact and sexy. Side bolts are really easy to access, we can adjust the length of the dropper easily and it’s even more durable. And we’re rolling!”– Yoann Barelli, Devinci Movement and SDG athlete
