  Product Description
Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost - Ride Faster, Longer, and Stronger

By adding the Cane Creek Thudbuster rear suspension you’ll ride faster, longer, and stronger with better traction, more control, and less fatigue. The performance, relative low weight, and simplicity make it the best suspension upgrade you can make to your hardtail. Based on a patented parallel-linkage design, the Cane Creek Thudbuster LT provides up to 3 inches of active stiction-free travel. Unlike telescoping suspension posts, there is no initial stiction to overcome—the suspension mechanism works in the direct path of the natural travel of the rear wheel. The elastomers provide the compression and rebound damping, and can be easily exchanged to tune the suspension.

  Product Questions & Answers

Question:
Will the Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost work with an I-Beam Saddle?

Answer:
No, an I-Beam saddle will only work with I-Beam specific seat posts. The I-Beam system uses an integrated composite base and clamping area. The I-Beam system eliminates popped and bent rails forever while shedding weight.

Question:
How can I determine what size Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost Fits my bike?

Answer:
You can determine what size Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost fits your bike by checking your current seatpost. Most seatpost have the size stamped into them. Remove your current post from your bike it should be stamped near the maximum height line. If your current post is not marked check with your frame manufacturer to determine the proper size seatpost.

Question:
My seat is really low. Will there be enough room for the Thudbuster’s suspension mechanism on my bike?

Answer:
The Cane Creek Thudbuster suspension mechanism requires at least 140mm from the saddle rails to the bicycle frame. This is a reasonable clearance that almost all riders with a properly sized frame will have.

Question:
I'm pretty tall and have my seat really high. Will the Thudbuster’s seatpost be long enough for me?

Answer:
The Thudbuster seatpost is a standard 380mm long from the end of the tube to the center of the saddle clamp where the saddle rails attach. You will need at least 100mm inside the bicycle frame so the maximum height from the frame to the saddle rails is 280mm (11 inches).

Question:
Can I tune the Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost suspension for my weight?

Answer:
Yes. Every Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost includes the complete set (6) of Double Barrel elastomers. You get 2 soft (gray), 2 medium (Cane Creek blue), and 2 firm (black) elastomers. You can mix and match these elastomers to fit your weight and riding style.

For starters, Cane Creek recommends:

Under 120- 140lbs.: two soft (gray/gray)

140-165lbs.: soft/medium (gray/blue)

165-190 lbs.: medium/medium (blue/blue))

190-215 lbs.: medium/firm (blue/black))

215-250lbs.: two firm (black/black)

Question:
How do I know what size diameter Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost I should order to fit my bike?

Answer:
Seatposts come in many different diameters. To figure out what size diameter Cane Creek Thudbuster LT 3G Seatpost you need for your bike you should first check your current seatpost. To find out the diameter of your seatpost, you must remove the seatpost from the bicycle and look for the size, which is generally stamped just below the “Minimum Insert” line toward the bottom. The number will be a three digit number (such as 26.8 or 27.2, etc.) If you are unable to read the size or it is not stamped, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your frame for the specifications.
