Currently have a PNW Cascade on my bike since it has external routing, along with Loam lever. That's been an absolutely great setup for not a ton of coin on an older bike. On my new Commencal Meta TR29 I will be specing a Bike Yoke Revive with the Wolf Tooth lever which is equally as awesome as the Loam lever (had PNW made an IS-EV clamp mount I would have bought another Loam lever lol).
@hardmtnbiker3 жыл бұрын
One other thing to consider with the remote dropper lever is the mix-match with your brake lever clamp. Some brakes like Hayes Domain or Formula brakes, the lever bar clamp mounts will NOT mix to a single bar clamp to integrate the dropper lever. May not be a big deal for some to have two clamps but something to consider

All I can say is stay away from Bontrager Line Dropper posts. My bike came with one and I stuck with it for 2 years but it was so unreliable and sometimes it just did not want to go down - you had to be in a perfect position on the seat to get it to go down. I serviced it quite a few times but it made no difference as it is just a bad design. It almost made me crash a couple of times. A few months ago it refused to drop down as I was hitting a technical downhill section and it almost made me eat some serious s$!7 so I sold a kidney (kidding) and bought a RockShox Reverb AXS and I haven't had an ounce of trouble with it. It drops down every time with no issues and the button on the remote is easy to press. On the old Bontrager post the remote was so hard to activate you would have a cramp in your thumb after a couple of hours of riding.
