Yeah.

Cracked frames at the top tube seat tube junction.

I would say post needs to be an inch below the bottom of the top tube minimum. Personally I go way more.

I’d run way more post inserted than you’re suggesting. Countless broken steel, aluminum and carbon frames came through. Even on light weight kids.

I do drop my seat for the berms and stuff, maybe I need to ride a bike without a dropper to open my eyes to how much I’ve adapted.

I’ve been riding MTB since ‘83, used a qr (even a hite rite!) and did lower my seat. I like a lower seat for cornering....don’t get back on anything but threatening to go over the bars steep...try...

I hear people talk about droppers being the biggest advancement in mountain biking in recent times. I use mine some but it’s not necessary....I guess I’m not aggro enough.

Extra few hundred...
