Or does anyone have a bog standard stealth dropper 170mm+ for 30.9 flavour? 

Cheers

Chris

Does it have to be 170? The Kore 30.9x150 is about to come off the wife's Orange and go on the classifieds 

She'll be getting a BikeYoke upgrade.

Someone else on here mentioned these former CRC peeps doing cheap seatposts:

Dropper Seatposts For MTB Enduro & Trail 150mm, 170mm, 200mm, 230mm – Ascend Components

They'll be very similar to Brand X posts, I imagine.

Have a look here. I believe it's a spin off of the old brand-x droppers. For £99 seems pretty good.

The Bike Outlet on eBay, which is apparently Stif/Jungle has a 175mm KS Lev for £99?

Wrong side of the bed? They aren't pretending it's anything so no issue, I'd be distancing myself from brand x if I used to work for crc

Bird bikes also sell them

Branded Bird but without the bird logo on those ascend ones!

Probably too late to the party, but I've got a Brand X on my Ragley - started sagging 10mm with maybe 6 months use
