New Resolve dropper design does away with the usual IFP arrangement, that can end up leaking air into the oil chamber, and promises to never get squishy.

Link does not work
Once the link is working I bet 20p it shows this dropper is considerably more pricey than a OneUp/BrandX/PNW post with the only benefit being that it self corrects a fault it shouldn’t have. I could be wrong of course 😀
Ha, reckon I win 20p

**** me, add a lever and it’s in Reverb AXS territory! (Yes I am comparing RRP to discounted Reverb for added effect)
Curious to know if it's significantly different to the BikeYoke Revive or Devine
How much 😬 ?
bet that needs more regular servicing!
Does anyone need more than what a Brand X offers? Been running mine for 5 years so far and all good.
I had a Funn updown dropper that claimed to not squash and tbf it didn't for the 2 years I had it. It was priced really well.
I will give one of these a go. Gains me a little bit of drop over the Revive I currently have.
Nicey but pricey!!!
Will stick with my OneUp and Brand-X for the moment I think....
The low stack and high tweakability of drop is good too. Looks light compared to the competition? And also feels well supported, things like making the outer available so you can swap 31.6 to 30.9 (which, frinstance, Oneup don't currently offer)
If it turned up in shops for half the RRP like a reverb (unlikely) then maybe, I like the idea of things you can strip apart and service yourself to keep them running sweet rather than dragging out service intervals to avoid paying someone else £100+ to do it.
And the low stack is nice
And the adjustable travel is nice
And the low weight is nice
But that's 4x Brand-X's! I can live with the ~100g weigh penalty and slightly less travel for that.
