I’ve had a reverb . When they are working they feel amazing; key word when they are working. Since then I now only buy the brand x ascend droppers. They have them from 125,150,170and 200mm . I’ve had the 150 and 170 and both have been flawless. I’ve never had to rebuild it either and honestly at only 135 bucks shipped to your door they are an excellent dropper . Sure it may weigh a little more than a high end one . But it functionality wise it’s the same.

The problem is those have pretty long insertion lengths. (Unrelated) are they made by xfusion?

In fact the one I have had for 5 years and the only thing I've ever done to it is add air pressure once.

It's an expensive upgrade but I would go for the one up v2 dropper. It has a very short insertion depth and you can change the travel by just clicking in some shims. Also it's cable actuated and in my opinion that is the better less fault-prone option with a easier service.

My B1 Reverb needed a big service after it had already failed on that white spacer on the first seals only service. It wasn't too much more expensive to get a OneupV2 and go from 150 to 180mm at the same time. I nearly got the 200 and reduce the travel but worked out the 1mm I should have spare on the insertion was too close to call. Turns out it would have fitted.

Get a OneUp V2 dropper. The 180mm has the same insertion length as other company's 150mm posts. Servicing takes less than 10 minutes. Treat yourself to a quality post it's so refined and well made, worth every penny. At $200 it might cost the same to fix the reverb.

I just got a brand new bike with one of these POS installed, and after one ride and sitting for a few days the Reverb has the spongy sag. I could not freaking believe it when I went out to ride today. There is no way I’m going to rebuild what is basically a brand-new seat post. Screw Rockshox and the team that designed this horrid POS. I have three other bikes with cable-actuated posts, and they work perfectly. What problem did Rockshox think they were fixing with a hydraulic system? Who the hell wants to bleed their damn seat post actuator? Why would a bike maker spec such an abortion of a product? It truly boggles the mind.

[@gr8fulride]

my bike came with a rock shock reverb stealth. first crash, it broke so I let lbs fix it. a month later I lifted the bike by the seat, and it no longer functions. I put in a pnw dropper, and the stealth is on the shelf. i got the bleed kit, but not even the slightest bit interested in hydraulic actuated toys that break a lot. . I've had good luck with all my cheap droppers, and kind of have to do more maintenance on the higher dollar ones

[@EvansMTBSaga]

Haha dang isn't that weird? I'm not sure if there are other hydraulic actuated droppers, but maybe it's just not meant to be. I also have a PNW and have never serviced it and no problems lol! Glad to hear we had similar issues. You could probably sell that dropper with kit for $100!

[@reidconti]

Follow the RockShox C1 "vent" procedure if you have a C1. There's a video from Rockshox on this, but they don't tell you what parts actuate the venting if you don't have their tool. The secret (if you don't have their stupid plastic tool) is to use an undersized (eg, 8mm) socket on a ratchet, and use THAT to actuate the vent position. Don't take the valve cap off. You'll be pressing down on the cap itself relative to the seatpost (but you don't want to put pressure into post itself when trying to actuate the vent position -- push down with ratchet, pull up with fingers on the seatpost flange thing). If for whatever reason you want to remove the cap to add air, use a 9mm. Spec is 300psi; mine had 200psi and works fine so i'm not touching it. Mine started sagging with 350 miles on it so I suspect it'll get crappy again soon. But for now it's rideable.

[@chaselovell4456]

You have to bleed it again and try to pull a better vacuum. Also make sure you “slow it down”. To the right of the bleed port on the lever. Slow it down when bleeding and then speed it back up once you are finished.

[@KODAKMOMNT]

do you guys get a little squish overall or rock solid?

[@cheskybaba4864]

If you have sag - a bleed or basic service kit is no good - it needs a complete rebuild - one of the o-rings (or IFP) is crap and you'll never know which, so you replace them all. The key is the bleed in the seat post itself - removal of excess fluid after you fill it up flush. It's worth it - they cost enough. Honestly, RS needs to do away with their tech and go cartridge style/cable actuated - but they have an ego and refuse to give up - besides they make a fortune on service kits.

My oneup post had this issue but I never fixed it because my bike was too small and it was a different diameter to my new one. I have a 200mm version of your post now and it’s been great. I’ve used it for almost 8000 km so many hours. Somehow the stock build lasted super long, as soon as I felt some stiction I rebuilt it all and it’s still going great. Definitely recommend smacking it full of grease.

[@the-mighty-taco]

The reverb posts are sensitive to seat post clamp pressure and will fail to go up all the way if overtightened. Lightly tighten it in your frame and that should resolve the issue. Encountered the same thing with my reverb.

[@EvansMTBSaga]

Haha the Reverb has been so touchy over the years 😂 I'll try it out. I've rode with it a couple of times now and it feels great to be honest

[@theshonen8899]

I believe you added too much grease to the stanchion, and you probably also want to use a lighter weight grease like white lithium. I've made the same mistake with my reverb and it stuck in the middle. It ended up resolving itself after a few rides anyways.

[@EvansMTBSaga]

Haha my sag is worse than when I freshly serviced it. Luckily I don't mind some squish, people pay big money for suspension seat posts

If sag is not fixed by vent valve, then it's time for a rebuild because the IFP has been displaced too many times. RockShox hints towards around 5 uses before it won't have any effect. On C1 Reverbs, that can mean your IFP being stuck at the very top/head of the post. 600hr rebuild was the better plan.

Preaching to the choir here, but these droppers are never without an issue. The hydraulics alone is one reason I have never even considered one. I had the OneUp V1 and it wasn't without issue either. I have Bontrager that came with my new Fuel and haven't had enough time in the saddle to critique it, but will most likely keep it until it becomes an issue and then probably back to OneUp.

[@AORNova]

Dump the Reverb. Over time the lever pistons will fail, the c clip and bottom bits of the post will rust and fatigue, and eventually the "600" hour rebuild will be commonplace once the seals begin to fail. Spend the cash on a reliable cable actuated dropper like a used PNW or Oneup. They have short as heck insertion that will let you run insane drop. Most frames with kinks in the seat tube are a pain to source short post insertion. Plus, the PNWs allow for passive travel adjustment, which is handy for frame-to-frame swappage. (Heck, even a 85$ KS Exaform dropper has shorter insertion than a Reverb.)

[@nebnollock5198]

Brand X Ascend is surprisingly good, really easy to service here in the UK as all of the parts are easy to get as the company is owned by wiggle/chain reaction Only downside is its insertion depth 🤷 Two of my riding mates have reverbs and both have the sag problem and one you literally have to jump on with all your weight to get it to compress

[@AORNova]

@@nebnollock5198 Was doing a full service of a customers Reverb at the shop and the c clip was so rusted it failed and the post had shot down into the seat tube of his 5010CC. Entire post was toast, seals destroyed from the explosion Used 2 Brand X Ascend 2's, and I have to agree they are bulletproof and insane value. Their insertion lengths are... average I guess. But I like the value and the generic air cartridge that you can swap it out if you really wanted to after 2 years

[@hansonwang2121]

Agreed. I had a 150mm TransX post, worked fine but there was no way to service it. After it broke I got a 180mm OneUp post, the insertion is shorter than the 150mm and it is so amazingly smooth. Can't see myself using anything else.

@@hansonwang2121 Transx droppers have an unreliable cartridge somehow. But the worst bit is they have a short actuator arm for the cable at the base of the post. Makes lever push/actuation very stiff even with a Wolftooth or aftermarket lever. It hurt my thumb when I had it on my old Siskiu.

[@rusutudorrr]

So here's the thing.. according to Park Tool, you don't fix the sag.. you just NEVER pull up on the seatpost, at all costs. You grab your bike bike the frame and that's it. I bought a B1 for my little bro and fixed the sag, but as soon as you get into the habit of grabbing the bike by the seatpost, that's that, it lasts a while but then it gets the sag again. Also, about the post not going back up :) Make sure your while foam bushings are clean and you get a satisfactory amount of good silicone grease on the shaft, the post should perform fine for at least sooome time. Cheers for everything and everyone have a nice one ;)

Different suspension design, but still you can have same suspension design as brands do yet have straight seat tube but then they would have to weld in an extra part the rocker link goes on to, but treet could redesign the bikes to make more sense. There is no reason to have a kink Ed seat tube. Modern vikjes sjokk uld have long enough reach, steep seat tube angle, straight steerer, low standover height, slack head angle chainstay that grows with the size, for same balance point on each size.

[@mtbboy1993]

@Dawson some bikes have a really bad case of this, also in smaller sizes this is more of an issue as the seat tube is shorter.

[@krzysiu4003]

Not sure how you managed to cure the sag without the full service. I’ve heard of temporary fixes where you compress it turn it upside down and extend it. The oil coming out of the air chamber is most likely from air and oil mixing as it gets past the IFP. The oil got into the air chamber then you released some of that oil which means the air chamber is now bigger than it should be. The IFP will be sitting in a different position which might be why it doesn’t fully return. I’m just guessing here btw.

[@EvansMTBSaga]

I know right. I agree about the air in the oil chamber. If I shake the dropper, I can hear the fluid slush around 😩 haha
