My new Trek has a Bontrager dropper which is 100mm. Due to frame design I think 125mm is the maximum but every little helps!

Not looking to splash out on a super expensive one, just something reliable which withstands the winter mud and grime!!

Are the KS ones any good?

Brand X 120mm from CRC for £100.

My newly purchased Reverb is being returned in favour of the above (it appears Reverbs don't like the cold). I've also ordered a Bontrager Drop Line lever and barrel for the Brand X to move the cable fixing to the lever end, making install far easier and less faffy.

Or a 160mm revive. I've fitted one where I thought 125 was the limit. Worth checking dimensions online.

Another one for a Brand x dropper

Ive got a reverb on one bike and a brand x on the other bike

The Reverb just had a service which cost £90 (before i knew about brand x)

Once it dies it will be replaced with a Brand x

My brand x is being used with a Specialized dropper lever with no probs
