FAQs

Does it affect stack height?

Yes, stack height will increase but the actual measurement depends on your dropper post and its reported values. We would advise that you plan for an average 10mm increase in saddle height. Keep in mind, however, that tilting the saddle backwards into Descend mode will provide an additional 30mm of clearance vs. your current setup so, in practice, you will gain more room to maneuver around the saddle.

How much does it weigh?

The SwitchGrade weighs 158 grams excluding installation hardware. Consider, however, that because it replaces your dropper post's stock clamps which typically average 60-70 grams, the net add to your bike is roughly only 100g.

If I change my dropper post will I need to buy another SwitchGrade?

The most likely answer is no. SwitchGrade 2.0 EVO features a modular compatibility system meaning all that's needed is to purchase a new set of shims and/or adapters that match your new dropper or seatpost.

Does it creak or produce any play?

No, you will not find any creaking or play. The SwitchGrade was designed with as few moving parts as possible and engineered to tight tolerances. Listen to what Dr. J MTB has to say about build quality and durability on his SwitchGrade review.

If you don't absolutely love your SwitchGrade within 30 days of receipt, simply email us at info@aenomalyconstructs.com to authorize a return and refund. All inquiries must be approved prior to initiating a return. To learn more, read our Return Policy.

What is the SwitchGrade?

PLAY NOW

Climb Easier

The SwitchGrade offers effective relief for those suffering back pain, groin discomfort, and difficulty breathing while climbing steep trail slopes.

Descend with Confidence

Tilt the rear down for an extra 30mm of saddle clearance, simultaneously positioning the nose for precise steering and control on your way to the podium (or buddy bragging rights).

An ebike must have. This is a game changer. I’m an ebiker who is mainly self shuttling myself back up for another run back down. On sustained climbs my back is constantly hunched over and in pain (I’m 49). With the Aenomaly installed I can climb the steepest of trails with my back in a neutral position and I finish my rides feeling fresh. This is almost an essential item for Ebikes.

A Magic Carpet for My Ass! This is undoubtedly one of the best bike gear so far since the introduction of the dropper post. The pieces are beautifully machined and the installation is straightforward. I've installed mine (V3) on the new FOX Transfer and it's perfect. It works smoothly with a rock solid action. Best Buy!

Game changer! I installed my SwitchGrade on my Transition Spur and it has been a game changer for climbing. It has made those steep grinds more comfortable and less fatiguing. Outstanding product. Highly recommended.

LORIN LOPETINSKY

Impressed!!! I got my SwitchGrade 2 weeks ago. It's well built, installation was a breeze. This is something that I didn't even know I needed until I tried it, way more comfortable on the climbs with the seat tilted forward!!! I highly recommend this!!!

Simple to Install

90 seconds, a 4mm hex key, and a torque wrench. Follow the supplied instruction guide and you'll be on the trails fast.

Built to Last

CNC machined from 7075-T6 and 6061-T6 aluminum. Precision-engineered to extreme tolerances.

Hear what the Pros have to say...

Health professionals, coaches, industry luminaries, and pro athletes share their thoughts on the SwitchGrade and its benefits.

When riding up a steep slope, a traditionally neutral saddle tilt will cause the pelvis to tilt posteriorly. This has a number of implications, both above and below the level of the hip. In addition to over-lengthening and stressing muscles of the lumbar spine, an aggressive posterior pelvic tilt alters the position of the hip joint relative to other structures in the body. This changes the leverage capabilities of the hip and surrounding muscles, particularly in regards to hip extension. Excessive posterior pelvic tilt also has a negative impact upon quadriceps muscle recruitment, and has the potential to affect the degree of terminal knee extension during pedal stroke. What this boils down to is both an uncomfortable and inefficient riding position. A negative saddle tilt, such as that provided by the SwitchGrade, helps mitigate this change in pelvic tilt during steep, seated climbing. concerns of your customers.

Dr. Adam Phaneuf, DC
Apex Chiropractic and Rehab

After spending a few long days in the saddle with SwitchGrade installed, I can definitely say that the benefits are noticeable. From a biomechanics perspective, the forward tilted position definitely creates a more anteriorly rotated pelvis in the seated position. That's anatomy speak for better lower back posture, and better power transfer during seated, steep climbs. From a shredding perspective, the rearward tilt gives you a noticeably increased standover height over your dropped saddle for full send, downhill procedures. I can't wait to get more time on the bike with Switchgrade aboard.

Dr. Josh Harris, DPT (Dr J MTB)
Somercycle Bike Shop

As a coach who is always looking for ways to help riders feel more comfortable on the bike, I saw immediately how this could keep pressure off their sensitive under-bits for those long steep climbs. After riding on the Switchgrade I was surprised by how much I missed it when riding on my bikes without one. It made my normal saddle position I've been riding for 20yrs feel like it was pointing straight up when climbing. I plan to introduce a lot of new people to the Switchgrade and to make sure all my bikes have one on it.

Matt said the downward tilt was such an advantage on steep climbs that he really missed it when returning to a regular fixed saddle:

"Like the first time you tried a dropper post - you don't know what you're missing until it's taken away."

Canadian MTB

"We’ve been riding a Switchgrade for a few months and it is really amazing how much of a difference this small change makes."

Bike Radar

One of the biggest advancements in mountain bike design has to be the dropper post with the ability to move your seat out of the way – helping you control the bike better.

Aenomaly’s SwitchGrade builds on that theory, enabling you to change the angle of the saddle via a lever on its underside.
