I have been considering that dropper/suspension post listed above - the PNW Coast.
If you're doing a long ride, which requires getting off the saddle often, doing so just gets 'old' really quickly...
The Rockshox has been perfect, but now having a dropper post seems essential for my rides. Having a dropper + suspension post seems a natural/essential thing for me...
Ride on
