KS LEV Ci Dropper Seatpost
Vital Review
Overall Review
W hen KS dropped the original Lev back in 2012, we were impressed enough to call it “best in class” at the time. The dropper post market has certainly heated up since those days, and with at least 15-20 viable options now available to riders, KS can’t afford to stand still if it wants to keep up. To that end, the original Lev has seen ongoing refinement, but it was the recent appearance of a carbon version that really caught our attention. Initially released in a super-short, 65mm version for the XC crowd , KS has now followed suit with a full-length version made of the fantastic plastic. We...

KS LEV C Adjustable Seatpost
Vital Review
Overall Review
by Josh Cady The LEV Carbon (LEV C) is made by KS USA . Based in Foothills Ranch, California, the Orange County company produces hydraulic height adjustable seatposts and rear shocks. Within their array of dropper posts, KS markets the LEV C to cross-country weight weenies (me) looking for a little more confidence on the descents, and anyone else looking to add a very light weight dropper post to their rig. Per my M.O., I took the post's ability to handle my cross country riding style to the extreme, and tested it on many of the same trails Curtis Keene trains on for the Enduro World Series...

KS LEV Adjustable Seatpost
Vital Review
Overall Review

Shortly after that ride we began testing a production...
