Sold my KS one last year , now wish I hadn't . 🙄 So the E Ten or RSP Plummet or Brand X. .?
What frame do you have? How much do you like it?
It was cheaper for me to buy a new frame and use a spare dropper than buy a new 27.2 dropper.
I have a similar dilemma only I have to buy one then get it turned down to 26.8mm. It can be done but seems rather foolish when you say it out loud.
Internal or external routed?
I have a Trans-X internal routed one kicking around that I didn't use.

Thanks dirkpitt but I need an external one, so Bike Discount are OK to buy from then?
Damascus., Ti frame. 😎
Bike discount are totally fine to buy from.
Gravity Droppers come in 27.2mm (or even 26.8mm). A little clunky, but pretty simple and easy to fix if anything goes wrong
I got a Tranz X from the same place, really good post, little bit of play but not much. Better post than the gravity dropper which it replaced.
Squirelking - I'm pretty sure I have a 100mm drop 26.8 GD in my spares box
mugboo - if squirelking doesnt want the gravity dropper i might be interested (depending on cost as pretty skint for christmas) .my 8 year old could really use a dropper on his scott voltage 24 and its a 26.8mm post, hes been asking for ages
Brand X comes in 27.2mm with external routing for £89 in sales
Have one on my Hybrid bike, works perfectly
New ones have a much better lever and the cable routing has the nipple at the top of the post body not at the top of the sanction so there is no outer cable movement when the post is in action and the lever end is held in by a nipple clamp
Been delighted with my Brand X - external routing, Hard to beat at the price
Brand x on CRC Black Friday deals at the moment.Happy with both of mine.
+1 for Gravity Dropper...find a second hand one though to be within budget
