Had 2 years use out the tmars on the wife's bike. Not full on, extreme use but plenty of riding. Much better than the alternative of a fixed seat post and probably cheaper than this hite-rite2 thing

You still have a broken one?

Sent it back, full refund on account of it was shit. Doesn't mean they all fail o'course but £60 isn't cheap when it doesn't work and something that works brilliantly is £130 or so.

What works brilliantly for £130 in 27.2?

Gravity dropper from germany. Only gets you a Descender rather than a remote but upgradable later if you want. Remote is better than lever but lever is better than doesn't work.

Seems like a lot of people do get on fine with the Tmars ones...

As you can buy 3 for the same price as the budget gravity dropper option it's worth a chance IMO.

The price seems to fluctuate quite a bit but you should be able to pick one up on eBay for £50 if you can wait for delivery.

That bike is enduro green too... don't tell me people were enduroing back then?!

Well, they were riding bikes and having fun, but I don't think the marketing departments were quite as involved at the time! 😉
