KS Lev Circuit

Technically this post isn’t in production yet, so little information is available. But the Lev Circuit prototype is close enough to being fully dialed that KS had a working model on display at Eurobike for passersby to play with. In practice, it works very similarly to the electronic dropper from Magura. Press the handlebar lever, wait a second for the servo motor to open the valve, sit down, and then it locks in place. Returning the post is faster and easier.
