SDG Components Tellis V2 Upper Tube

No, this specific upper tube is designed exclusively for the Tellis V2 dropper post. It will not fit the original Tellis model due to differences in internal architecture and seal design.

Not necessarily. Dropper post travel is determined by the internal cartridge and the length of the upper tube assembly. Simply swapping the upper tube does not change the travel of your post unless your specific post model supports that travel adjustment.

This product is the upper tube assembly itself. It typically does not include the internal cartridge, bushings, or seal kits, so you should plan to reuse your existing hardware or purchase a separate service kit if those components are worn.

You will need a standard set of metric hex keys, a strap wrench or specialized spanner for the collar, and high-quality suspension grease. Because this involves disassembling your dropper post, we recommend having a clean workspace and a shock pump on hand to reset the air pressure afterward.

You should consider replacing the upper tube if you notice deep scratches or scoring on the stanchion surface that cause air leaks or stiction. If the post is binding despite regular cleaning and lubrication, the tube may be bent or damaged beyond repair.
