CHICO, Calif. (BRAIN) — Paul Components has offered a quick-release seat collar for many years, and now is launching its first traditional bolt-on collar.
"Since the advent of dropper-posts, we started thinking about this more often," the company said. "There really is a need these days for a seatcollar with deeper, more uniform clamping distribution: Enough to keep your dropper post from slipping in the frame, but also with a large, evenly dispersed clamping force to avoid the dreaded 'dropper-binding.'
"The convex back of our “floating button” design evenly disperses clamping force, and avoids pinching or binding at a lighter weight than a steel barrel, is replaceable if damaged, and follows the simple Paul aesthetic nicely."
The collars are made in Chico, California, of 6061 and 7075 aluminum, weigh 29-31 grams, and are available in anodized Black, Purple, and Silver or hand-polished silver. Available clamp diameters are 30, 31.8, 33.1, and 35mm.
MSRP is $79.95.
