So I had an unexpected early delivery today of a guess what Loam lever to fit another branded but well less known & used dropper which’ll Land early February.

Quality I knew would be decent but blimey it really is a real decent dropper lever.

Ordered Sat delivered Today Tues.
I like how the reach of lever can be adjusted by a grub screw thingy and that it is really well made which doesn’t mean heavy just so you know.

Not many left available so get in my sons - allez allez!!

Mine arrived Sunday. I've not installed it yet but it does look and feel like a quality item.

I'm sorry, but £65 for a dropper lever 😆 does it make the trails come alive?
For that money I'd want more than a 'quality item', I'd want it encrusted in diamonds.

Looks nicely machined but if it was £65 that is a lot for a dropper lever. The new style brand x one is fine (and comes free with a £109 150mm drop post) and the Bonty one is even better that I’ve got on my other bike.

Fitted mine today. It's a very nice thing. It is too much money for something so simple...but then all of the decent ones are. If you want one that turns on a bearing then your paying £60+ which is nuts. The fox one it's replacing is crap and its the same price...not even a bearing. Crazy

Looks nice but a little expensive! I got the oneup one with my oneup dropper and it seems s decent bit of kit (on a bearing also).

Its when you look across at the lever on the other side of the bars (XT M8000) which is like a Swiss watch inside and never fails...but costs half the price of your dropper lever which has 2 moving parts. 3 if I am being generous and include the split bar clamp. There is not even a spring required as that's in the seatpost. I know mass manufacture and all that but still....really!
