Dropper Seatpost Development

Hi All!

I'm Conor Craig from MADMTB. I’m currently in my final year of my Mechanical Engineering Degree and as part of one of my modules I am doing a project on Dropper Seatposts. This project involves designing our own Dropper Seatpost, and then developing a business plan to manufacture, market, distribute and sell this product while developing a sustainable business.

With this in mind I am currently conducting market research into the topic of dropper seatpost. I would hugely appreciate if you all could take the time to fill in this survey, it won’t even take 5 minutes and you don’t need to own a Dropper Seatpost to complete the survey! In fact, the opinions of those who do not own a Dropper Seatpost are just a useful as those who do own them.
Your time and input is very much appreciated and I am very thankful.

Thanking you all in advance,

Thank you to everyone for replying! It is very much appreciated, the response so far has been outstanding. 186 responses in less than 24 hours! If you haven't done it already I would be very grateful if you could, the more data we get the clearer picture we can build of the market and what is needed.

Thanks again all!
