Cannondale DownLow Matchmaker Remote Kit

This remote is designed specifically for the Cannondale DownLow dropper post. While it uses a standard cable-actuated system, compatibility with other brands depends on the cable pull ratio and attachment style of your specific post.

Matchmaker is an integrated mounting standard that allows you to attach the remote directly to your SRAM brake lever clamp. This helps declutter your handlebars by eliminating the need for a separate bar clamp.

Yes, this kit is designed as a complete remote replacement and includes the necessary hardware to connect the remote to your dropper post. You may still need standard cable cutters and housing crimps for a clean installation.

The remote itself is universal in terms of handlebar diameter, but because it uses a Matchmaker mount, you must have a SRAM Matchmaker-compatible brake lever to attach it directly. If you do not have compatible brakes, you would need a separate adapter to mount it to your bars.

If you are comfortable with basic cable routing and tensioning, installation is straightforward. However, it does require threading the cable through the remote and securing it at the dropper post, so ensure you have the proper tools and a bit of patience for the initial setup.
