The Highline V2 is available in 27.2mm, 30.9mm, 31.6mm and 34.9mm diameters, with travel options from 60mm to 230mm. The 30.9mm, 31.6mm and 34.9mm versions allow travel to be reduced by up to 20mm in 5mm increments without completely removing the post. The 60mm, 60mm L, 80mm and 80mm L versions have fixed travel.

Insertion length has been reduced across the range, while the post features a 45mm minimum stack height. The redesigned actuator is approximately half the height of those used on the previous Highline 3 and Highline 7 models.

The 30.9mm, 31.6mm and 34.9mm versions use a revised sealed emulsification cartridge, while the 27.2mm model uses a self-contained IFP hydraulic cartridge. The saddle clamp features a two-bolt design with a quick-release rear bolt and nut.
