The remote light action dropper lever has a longer lever arm than the standard remote, reducing the actuation force required by a third and making it ideal for dropper posts with a harder pull or if you prefer a light actuation feel.
Every single detail of the remote light action is the result of a singular drive to eliminate all complaints found with stock dropper levers.
In an industry first, the remote uses a 21mm sealed cartridge bearing for smooth operation and unparalleled modulation. A precision-machined cable path and custom clamping screw with captive washer wont damage cables like more common set screws. As an added bonus, cables can be cut to length and crimped prior to securing.
The remote lever sits close to the bar, minimizing the distance the thumb must be removed from the grip while reducing the likelihood of knee contact in technical terrain and adds a bit of extra length to overcome stiff dropper internals.
Wolf Tooth's team have also included an innovative engineered failure point, allowing the lever to break away from its base in the event of a crash. Replacement axles are inexpensive and readily available, ensuring that you can spend more time on the trails and less time in the workshop.
Features:
- Compatible with all cable actuated dropper posts.
- Works with dropper posts that (a) have the barrel end of the cable at the remote position and (b) those that have the barrel end at the seat post.
- If your post is not listed in the charts found in the image gallery, wolf tooth recommends measuring the pivot centre to end of your current lever. If it is greater than 52mm the light action will work best. If it is less than 52mm, the standard remote will work best.
