I have a reverb and have had to replace the remote barb due to a small off (actually 6ft drop to my right) took about 5mins and bleeding about 3 mins so easy.
I live in NJ usa most of the riding we do is up down, up down tech stuff, some of the downs are better tackled on a dh bike but the ups are way too steep. The reverb has made my riding faster due being to fly up and down hills quicker as the dropped seat makes for better control it has also made me tackle new stuff, one thing it has done which is not mentioned as much is with the saddle an inch or so lower you really can do twisty singletrack so much faster.

Definitely worth the money if you pay <140 IMO.

Anymore and its diminishing returns.

The only annoying thing is when they start to wear or break. Standard seatposts silently do their job. Pooks expensive one failed recently- imagine he'd have been out on a alldayer in the Lakes?

My seatpost has stuck a couple of times.
