Been looking for reviews on this post but can only find ones for the older style with rubber gaitor. Anyone running the newer style ? Don't want to spend Reverb money so at around £90 it fits my budget .

  • Cheers wmorgs, my bike is external only so will have to put up with the cable . Be interested how you get on with it .
    JBA I have looked at the Giant posts just a bit worried about getting one secondhand as there seem to be a few problems with droppers in general ( not just Giant) just trying to weigh up weather to get a budget RSP new or play secondhand roulette lol
