The latest generation Thudbuster LT is superior to its predecessor in every way. Building on Thudbuster’s proven parallel linkage technology we have completely re-designed the seatpost for increased durability, additional suspension travel, as well as ease of use through tool-free elastomer change and a single-bolt seat clamp design.
By improving on this already legendary design, we’re confident to say that the newest generation Thudbuster is the most advanced suspension seatpost ever made.
The Thudbuster Parallel Linkage technology stays in the direct path of the natural travel of the rear wheel. As a bump lifts the back of a bicycle, the rear wheel pushes up and forward into the rider. The Thudbuster works by compressing along the exact opposite path — down and rearward — absorbing force at the same rate.
This results in a natural suspension feel without being overly active, and allows for more travel without compromising pedaling position.
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.
