Has anyone bodged a Reverb to work with an under the saddle lever?
I have a couple of bikes that I want to be able to move the seatpost around on, and dont want to have to disconnect a remote every time.
Just buy a cheap KS supernatural with a lever. My old one was bulletproof and was designed for that
I rode a KS with a lever for about 4 years, replaced with a LEV and bar mount which I've had for nearly 2 years. I tried to go back on the XC bike and no way I was taking my hand off the bars for the crotch grab drop. Under saddle adjustment is a backwards step. If you want to swap it something like a lev and 2 lever kits would work.
Would go for a Thomson if I could get hold of the under saddle lever.
I know what you mean about it being backwards, but this is to swap between 2 XC bikes and a fat bike.
Have you tried both options? Seriously being able to swap isn't worth the bad idea of the under the saddle lever. Lev does give you the simplest swap though.
Yeah I already have both, much prefer the remote on the Enduro bike.
I've always run reverb under the bar,feel they are better that way. Had a reverb since they first came out, and run them on 3 different bikes,currently running stealth one under bar on my bronco, never had an issue. Buy a right hand remote and mount it on left of your bar if you running 10th or 1x11
and dont want to have to disconnect a remote every time.
Why, it's one bolt, 30 seconds to get take it off, 30 seconds to put it back on?
I'm sure a handle bar lever is better.. but I went cheap a couple of years ago and bought x-fusion with crotch grab lever. Sure have to pick my moment to use it, but its perfectly fine. If money/less hassle is what you're after then don't discount the idea. Only time i'd say it was actually dangerous is if you're racing...

Someone didn't read the OP properly 🙄

This. I've one on my XC bike and tbh just didn't put the cable on as I want to be able to just swap to a normal seatpost when required.
