I’ve got an old handjob that I’d like to build back up and having got quite fond of the Reverb on my main bike I was wondering what options I have these days.
Ideally I’d like something reliable and simple like a gravity dropper, I was going to keep it at the inlaws (other end of the country) so I can go out riding when I’m down there. Cheaper would also be good, having said that some of the budget options seem unreliable and not very refined (who’d have guessed)
Gravity Dropper – Is the only way to get one of these right now to order from the US?
Thomson Elite – too expensive!
KS Lev 272 – again quite expensive!
Cheaper options:
Forca Vario
Ice Lift V8
TMARS
Satori
Are these budget options all variations on the same thing/equal or are some better than others? I’ve read a range of different reviews from terible, only lasted a few rides to great, easy to maintain and seen some interesting looking photos of rusty internals!
what does STW reckon?
