PSA – Reverb @ CRC £130

where do you get the £10 vouchers from?

FWIW my £20 jobs were birthday presents delivered by bemused relatives, not offer codes

When you buy stuff

@townydc

Size? seatpost is 30.9, I got one of the first reverbs when they came out I think they are only a 4″ drop for the mark 1. Anyways that is plenty for me.

Think I paid something silly like £250 for mine a couple of years ago 🙁

Now if only they came in 27.2….

Its a 31.6 im afraid. If you look in my previous posts under Cube Fritzz for sale (Im going to keep it now!)you can see pics of it. Superb nick.

Enter code UVF1690 for free dropper post, delivered in a Spar bag.

@DT78,

Thanks for that I’ve ordered a 420mm long with 100mm drop as I ride a large Anthem X4, I think my original connect post is 400mm so it should be ok.

Cheers Leku – mines ordered 😀

Reverbs from CRC, Merlin and Wiggle ?

And on-one?

CRC – 420mm, LH remote that will go under the RH side.

The only one I want is the sold out one 🙁

Oh well, that didn’t last long, snooze you lose!

I’m quite glad actually, nearly got carried away in the excitment, but £130 for a half kilo seatpost does seem stupid with hindsight.

Really tempted with this as I have been dropper post curious for a while.

Stupid question time, can you run this below max height? I need it about 10mm shorter ideally due to not being able to drop the post far enough into the frame. I know that means I won’t get the max drop but can you set it to stop 10mm short?

Thanks in advance.

lucky for me they don’t make a 400mm post with 125mm drop…nearly bought one!

thank god for riding small bikes

Yeah, I wanted the 420 RH remote, to go on LH side. There one minute, gone the next. Could prob have gotten away with the 380 with the remote I wanted, but decided to play it safe with the longer one. I’m right handed, so will probably work out better with it under the RH side of the bars anyway.

Another stupid question – Where is the 420 or 355 measured from? Is it the bit that fits into the frame then add the 100 or 125 drop?

Will 380mm and 420mm not do?

Dammit! Shouldn’t really… but… dammit!

It’s the total length of the post. Measure how much of your current seatpost is out the frame and use that to determine which size you need. It’ll depend on the minimum insertion you need.

Why is the 31.6 and 410mm post still £209 and everything else reduced?

They do a 410mm with 125drop, what are you on about?

I know that means I won’t get the max drop but can you set it to stop 10mm short?

No but you might find +10mm is good for pedaling uphills, I run my reverb quite a bit higher than I ever did the solid post.

The save15 code has just been noticed 🙂 – now expired 🙁

Excuse my ignorance but what does MMX mean?

Ta.

Noticed the code seemed to disappear when the Jan sale email came out, and most of that stuff is random tat theyve had on sale for ages.

Got one of the last cheap Merlin ones, was surprised to see it was aftermarket with bleed kit etc, works out same price as the crc once you buy the extras.

Gonna be quite a few under Xmas trees this year!

It relates to the clamp. You *can* use it to have a single clamp for your Avid post 2011 brakes, Sram shifters and Reverb.

IF you don’t have these you can just use it as a normal clamp, removing the bits you don’t need.

Cheers rickon. I was not aware of that.

You sound like you’re trying to convince yourself. 🙂

mine’s in the post already 😀

I am getting CRC vouchers for birthday/xmas bet there won’t be any left by xmas 🙁

Annoys me that the CRC discount vouchers don’t work any more, despite being advertised as working til Dec 24th! I feel a stern email coming on…

Anyway… Still ordered at £144.99 cos was too good a deal to miss out, even if I couldn’t save another £15. Bought via quidco though, so will save another 3% off when its been processed.

Think i am too late. wanted 125 drop on 30.9 but says they are discontinued.
Any other places selling them this cheap??

Got my 31.6 and its dispatched already 😀

😯

So excuse the dumb question if i order a 420 long post with 100mm drop, can I assume the length of the 30.9 post tube is 320mm, hoping I haven’t ordered one that’s too long.

I think you’d subtract the height off the collar too. Also, if your current post has more than 100mm exposed now, then you won’t inset it fully anyway.

I’m tempted too. I cant see any issue with sizing though? Do issues arise re frame design? I ride a hard tail with a 410mm post that’s shows a fair bit. So I assume that if I buy a 420mm reverb that it works the same. I have it where my static pin is now but with the benefit of a drop?

I went the other way and bought a 180Gr carbon seatpost instead 🙂

I think the 125mm post is 190mm from the seat clamp to the rails, so the 100mm is probably 165mm.
