What is a Suspension Seatpost?

A suspension seatpost is a specially designed bicycle seatpost featuring shock absorbing construction that helps smooth out bumps in the terrain and reduce the impact to the rider. They are best suited for gravel biking and bikepacking applications but are also used on road bikes to help riders stay in the saddle through rough roads.

The Shockstop suspension seatposts feature a proprietary parallelogram design, which allows for the suspension to remain active even when you're seated and pedaling. This means that you can benefit from the suspension's smoothing effect even when you're putting down power, unlike some suspension seatposts that become rigid when you're pedaling. For an ultralight, race-tuned version, choose the ShockStop PRO Suspension Seatpost.

The minimal design of the ShockStop Suspension Seatpost blends seamlessly with the aesthetic of modern gravel, road, and e-bikes. Along with the ShockStop Suspension Stem, this suspension system works together to reduce fatigue and strain, letting you ride farther, faster, and more comfortably.

Benefits of a Suspension Seatpost

Improved comfort: Suspension seatposts help to absorb shocks and vibrations from rough roads, reducing stress and fatigue on your body, especially your hands, arms, and back. This can lead to a more comfortable ride and reduced risk of injury.

Improved control: By absorbing shock and vibrations, a suspension seatpost can help to maintain traction and stability on rough roads, allowing you to ride with more confidence and control.

Reduced fatigue: By reducing the amount of stress and fatigue on your body, a suspension seatpost can help you to conserve energy and ride for longer without feeling as tired.

Better performance: By allowing you to maintain traction and control on rough roads, a suspension seatpost can help you to ride faster and more efficiently, especially on technical terrain.

What kind of saddle bags can I use with the ShockStop Suspension Seatpost?

Most standard strap-based saddle bags will fit the ShockStop Suspension Seatpost without issue. If your saddle bag uses rigid clips, clamps, or some other inflexible attachment method, it's possible that your bag may not be compatible.
Any bag that just attaches to the saddle or just attaches to the post is fine. But when you attach to both the post and the saddle you need to account for the relative motion of the saddle to the post. This means that if you cinch down the bag when off the bike it might have some movement when you get on the saddle and compress the post a bit - this might not be a problem but it might be something that is an issue.
It all really depends on weight and how stable the bag is and if it is attached to both the post and the saddle - it can be fine but with a lot of weight it will mean it can move around when the post is compressed. It will likely come down to testing it out with your specific bag to see how it works. And if you have a bag that is able to be secured to just the post or to the post and a rear rack then you will be all set.

Is the stiffness of the ShockStop Seatpost adjustable?

Absolutely - We designed the ShockStop Suspension Seatpost so that you can adjust it to perfectly match your weight and riding style. The Shockstop PRO Endurance Suspension Seatpost comes preinstalled with inner and outer springs as well as a medium and soft elastomer, plus an additional medium elastomer in the box so that you can adjust the stiffness. The preload adjustment knob at the bottom of the seatpost allows you to adjust the spring preload - the amount of force required to cause the saddle to start moving.

Is a Suspension Seatpost Suitable for Bikepacking?

The Redshift ShockStop PRO Endurance Suspension Seatpost is great way to improve comfort on long and demanding bike packing trips. With a suspension seatpost, bikepackers can go farther, faster and with less fatigue - which means more fun!
