Which sub £150 dropper post?

RipGroove

Don't want anything too cheapo that won't last or be a pain to use but also don't want to spend more than I have to, any ideas? TBH I'm not too bothered if it has a remote even.

Are these any good? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KS-EXA-ETEN-Remote-Adjustable-Dropper-Seat-Post-Seatpost-MTB-Bike-31-6mm-/331671746209?hash=item4d392d36a1

Looks ok, but a brand new one with warranty is only £90 from http://www.bike-discount.de/en/buy/exaform-eten-remote-hydraulic-drop-post-31%2C6mm-44687?currency=3&delivery_country=190

If you shop around it may be possible to get a Rockshox Reverb under £150. Rose Bikes did have them for £139. Merlin have them for £160 and ofter have discount vouchers you can find online.

Thanks, are Reverbs the ones to go for then in general?

rockmonkeysc

Yes. You will find lots of reports of problems on the net but that's just because they have sold in huge numbers.

I bought my reverb for £162.

Bit more than your budget but is saving £12 worth it for missing out on the industry standard?

There must be a reason why it seems to be OEM on nearly EVERYTHING especially top end bikes!

Yes, it's SRAM, and they tie it in with all the other SRAM empire (brakes, forks, shocks, cassettes, hubs, shifters, mechs) volumes to get the best prices based on volumes......
