Zebra Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 after FIRST asking for advice on a 27.2mm dropper post (2015 Carbon Epic, and the OEM Specialized dropper post costs....R7K!), someone suggested I try Lyne Components... Well, after one or two Hubbers sang their praises, I went ahead and ordered, 30 seconds to order completion, that quick, i WAS impressed by website functionality, then just 24 hours later, the product - Lyne 27.2mm dropper post, was delivered to my work, in a nice re-useable mailing tube (see pics).No charge for delivery, yet delivered from FedEx, nice! The cost was R2,2K, which was within my budget, and the Hubbers have given me advice on how to try and install an INTERNALLY-routed dropper on the Epic.. Since I run my own MOTORcycle shop, I actually studied how easy the process was, to improve my own offering! Thanks, Lyne, this really, really was a pleasure! (I am not affiliated/have never met them, etc, etc.)Chris
Popit Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Awesome heading ...Well done to Lyne Products .
Pure Savage Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 I thought we were going to get some fitment shots

BigTom Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 After all the "disaster" stories of horrible service, nice to read a couple positive ones recently.
Skylark Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Anyone had issues with their Lyne posts so far, interested to see if the reliability matches the good looks? Apparently the internal cartridge is easy to replace and costs around R700 which bodes well.
KingTJ Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 a couple of my mates have them and I have only ever heard good things...and south African made, which makes it even better
linuxlg Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 I have ordered one, about 7 months ago, 4 of my buddies as well, and no issues whats so ever. My one friend weighs round 100kg no issues with his neither. I too phoned around for pricing on dropper posts and found them so expensive. Lyne was the cheaper solution and it is working perfect so far on my camber. Highly recommend them
T-Bob Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Been running my 150 and it's great. Service is awesome, 2 yr warranty and actual people that care about the customers and a have a great product. Well done fellas.
Jewbacca Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Yup... I have been running the 27.2mm since they 1st got stock. No hassles what so ever. It is as good as the day I got it. The Guys at Lyne are proper legends......
Zebra Posted February 21, 2017 Author Posted February 21, 2017 whew, a lot for me to reply to!I will post pics and feedback when I fit it; this may take a week or two, though - very very busy time for me right now!got some good advice here on HOW to fit the 'internal' dropper to my Epic carbon. But yes, I am in Retail myself, (but Adventure motorbike accessories), and this service blew me away!Chris

Rocket-Boy Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 So far their products have really impressed me, nice to know they have good service at the same time.
