KS showed us a new dropper post option for XC racing, the 35-mm drop Zeta. The post features a minimalistic body housing a hydraulic/air combo, cable-actuated mechanism. The post is cut to fit like a traditional seat post, with the added comfort of a small amount of travel to give XC racers an edge in technical sections. The aluminum version weighs in at 486 grams, while its carbon counterpart should come in at 422 grams. Planned to exist for both 30.9 and 31.8 seat tubes, the Zeta is likely to be a 2017 product for KS.
