    Thank you for this! I'm in the market for a new dropper, and this video helped me choose.

    My reverb C1 after about 15 rides became squashy. I took saddle off, bled the dropper with the tool they provided and since then I had to repeat this process after every ride. Sent dropper back to retailer and I'm waiting for full refund

    I love my new fox. The old one wasn't designed as good because of the way it bolts to the seat. The old one had no forward tilt making it for vertical seat tubes.

      @Mattys Garage Trust me, you made a wise choice so i can't agree with the fellow above because they are all pretty much the same...this isn't really revolutionary tech, only thing you pay more is the name. Only difference between them is return speed and it really doesn't matter if its 0.5 or 0.6 sec. Also, you don't have to adjust pressure because most sizes come with sealed cartridge at 300 psi i think so you install the thing, ride and worry about nothing...:)

    I've had the Birzman tool kit for a year, and it is really good. However, I've had 2 of the tools break-- the flat blade screwdriver pushed into the handle when I used it as a chisel, and the file broke in half when I used it as a pry-bar. Sure, these aren't the recommended uses of the tools but when it's your only tool box you have to improvise.

    Are there any worth wile droppers other than the Bikeyoke ones? sure it's not the cheapest. but it sure its bombproof. Got mine after sending the one I got with my bike back for warranty 3 times in 3 months. fitted it and other than taking it out for cleaning gunk out of the seat tube and fitting a new cable. haven't touched it until recently since I got it 3 years ago. super easy to take apart for cleaning. Already planning on getting a 2nd one for my next bike.

    So c1 reverb issues not in rear view mirror. After 2 rebuilds on mine in 6 months the replacement post (under warranty) will be sold. The new bleed valve doesn’t bloody work either. On the other hand it performs really well when it’s working - which kind of adds to the disappointment.

      If you go to check out the full shootout feature on our site, you'll see that we discuss it there. We didn't include it because it really sits in a price category of its own, but we did say in our standalone review of the AXS that it may well be "the dropper perfected".
