Yeah it's about 8cm. I ride mostly gravel "fire roads" stuff with this. But a lot of uphill and long downhills. I ride roadbikes a lot so i'm comfortable. On Trails it's too much drop i found, even though lowering the saddle helps. Wish there was a dropper post for 26,8mm seatposts. Gonna flip the stem to see if it gets better, but i'm too lazy to adjust the cantis since i have my modern fullsuspension for the gnarly stuff. But for long trips without gnarly downhills its great.
