Future of E-MTB Control? Orbea’s RS iDropper Might Be the Lightest, Smartest Dropper Post Yet
Orbea has launched the RS iDropper, the first electronically controlled dropper post integrated into an e-bike’s main battery and control system. The 646g, 240mm post features internal cable routing and programmable drop settings using a built-in sensor. It debuts on 2025 Orbea Rise models and is exclusive to Orbea’s Shimano EP8 RS-based e-bikes. No separate battery or dropper lever is required.
