Product Story

Ever since we introduced our Quick Release Seatcollar years ago, folks have been requesting a bolt-on version. But with so many other seatcollars on the market, we didn’t initially take the requests too seriously. Since the advent of dropper-posts, we started thinking about this more often. 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.

These are lovingly machined by us to the highest tolerances out of USA sourced 6061 & 7075  aluminum right here in sunny Chico, California. They are currently available in 30.0mm, 31.8mm, 33.1 and 35.0mm, in polished, purple, black, silver, and with orange accents.
