[Closed] Play bike or race bike for dropper?

Currently have my dropper on my FS lapierre x control, I use this for fun rides with friends and gaining more confidence in trying more technical trail.

I use my Ti HT for tri races and long endurance rides.

I'm thinking that it maybe wiser to move the dropper onto the HT as I generally don't stop when training or racing on this.
The lapierre when out with groups are full of stops etc ......plenty time to adjust saddle height.

Any thoughts on this?

It was on HT before I got the lapierre, moved over while getting more experience on mtb and trying new skills.

Think ill move back over onto race bike. Time will tell.

Er, why a dropper on your race bike? Learn the skillz on your FS bike, keep your race one a light as possible. If "they" can do the hadleigh farm course with seats up their bottoms, so can you ๐Ÿ˜‰
