CrankBrothers will announce their new Highline 11 dropper post on April 7 at Sea Otter. The Highline 11 combines premium materials with CrankBrothers’ tried-and-trusted hydraulic IFP cartridge system, resulting in their lightest dropper post yet.
Featuring a carbon quill, carbon head, and titanium hardware, the Highline 11 sheds approximately 100 grams over the Highline 7, all without compromising on any features or construction. The post maintains all of your favorite elements, such as infinite adjustment and a reliable hydraulic IFP. Built with every rider in mind, from cross country racer to weekend enduro rider the Highline 11 is available in travel lengths ranging from 60mm to 170mm, allowing the rider to choose the perfect post for them.
Premium Materials
Constructed from premium materials, the Highline 11 utilizes Carbon and Titanium construction to help reduce the overall weight of the post.
Head Features
The carbon head features titanium mounting bolts, a 47mm stack height, and a two-bolt quick release system for easy saddle installation and tilt adjustment.
Internals
The internals feature CBs proprietary self-contained hydraulic IFP cartridge for smooth actuation and IGUS LL-glide bearings and keys to help minimize play.
Actuator System
The quick-connect linear-pull mechanism offers ease of installation and allows for a lighter lever feel as well as a quicker return speed.
