New dropper post.

Thinking of swapping the stock post that came with the bike. Is it worth spending the money on a RS reverb or are the cheaper brands like the Brand x ascend just as good.

Fair question, unsure to be honest, my bikes an 18 inch, unsure what I really need, I'll look into it, and get back to you. Thanks a lot folks

I think what QueenB ment was what diameter post and how much drop you were looking for.
Also,can the cable be routed internally or not?

I've had 3 or 4 reverbs over the years, at some stage they all needed a bleed or service - there's €100 straight away

Ah now, bleeding a reverb is something that takes 5 mins. It's a very simple process. Anyone can do it.

A full rebuild is costly but that is usually covered by warranty.
