Yes we still offer Elastomers for previous versions of the Thudbuster... You will need to choose G3 (generation 3) elastomers.
The Medium elastomer comes installed while additional elastomers can be purchased separately. The Medium is suitable for 150lb-200lb riders so for a 110lb rider you will need the Extra Soft elastomer #AAE0299-54. You can find the elastomer weight range in the Thudbuster instructions: https://canecreek.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Thudbuster_LT_Englsih_Web-1.pdf
It takes some patience and some hand strength but once you release the gold button you can wedge the large LT elastomer from the seat post. You can find these instructions online: https://canecreek.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Thudbuster_LT_Englsih_Web-1.pdf and we have a video too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCU7b8NaXCw&t=196s

Verified OwnerI had tube measured with a drop in taper gauge and it measured at 26 mm. The seat post was stamped as 25.4. The shim was too big… I used an aluminum can.

I just installed this and rode it a little so far.
Unlike many reviewers online, I had no problems with the installation. I believe their issues are due to user error. Seems to be a great design.
But I think it is a bad marketing decision by Cane Creek to insist on shipping these with no choice for elastomer.
It is not just rider weight that factors in here, but maybe more importantly the type of riding.
E-bikers hitting potholes is a very different issue from a mountain biker on real mountain bike trails, even if they weigh the same.
Forcing me to go through the swap procedure, expense, and hassle, followed by never having a need for my Medium elastomer, puts a needlessly bad end to the purchase and install experience for me.
Verified OwnerThe question is Why I bought this item?
I bought it because while riding my very expensive Reise miler bike, this element unexpectedly simply broke off!!!!
it was clearly made of some crappy china metal. Bravo Cane Creek I almost die .
