Dropper post
Transition SCOUT CARBON Complete Kit 2 comes with a dropper post. A dropper post is a must-have these days if you’re riding anything remotely technical.

As mentioned above, the lever system allows you to quickly move the saddle out of the way when approaching descents or trail obstacles.
