This Thudbuster seatpost is fantastic, it smoothed out my commute over bumpy roads and was easy to install.
Cal –
This seatpost doesn’t do much to reduce shocks from bumps in the road as promised, making for an uncomfortable ride.
Fred –
The Thudbuster ST suspension seatpost is a great choice for absorbing bumps with its parallel linkage design, interchangeable elastomer system, and 50mm of travel though installation takes some mechanical skill.
Sterling –
As a casual rider, the over-engineered Thudbuster seatpost with fancy pivoting axles was an overpriced letdown that did nothing to improve my leisurely weekend rides.
Mick –
The Thudbuster seatpost has some nice features like adjustable travel and easy installation, but overall the comfort gains seem minor for the high price.
Armand –
The Thudbuster ST seatpost aims to smooth out bumps for e-bike riders and commuters, though I’d want to test long-term durability before fully recommending.
Conrad –
The Thudbuster seatpost takes the edge off bumps during my commute but doesn’t really cut it for serious mountain biking. I’d probably go for something higher-end if I wanted more adjustability and durability.
