Skylark Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 Available locally though?If it gets released here I can't see it being below R6k?
Raydek Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) Wonder if one would be able to buy the lever on its own, should work with any cable actuated dropper... Edit: Doh.. just seen it on its own on the CC for $65... Edited June 7, 2016 by Raydek
FCH Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 not even bothering to look at those prices anymoreSo if current pricing is anything to go buy.The Reverb has been passed around by more Middlemen than Audrey Dawns.
Iwan Kemp Posted June 13, 2016 Author Posted June 13, 2016 Another cool remote option http://www.bikerumor.com/2016/06/13/bike-yoke-offers-new-shifter-style-triggy-dropper-post-remote/ http://brimages.bikeboardmedia.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Bike-Yoke_Triggy_alternative-shifter-trigger-style-remote-dropper-post-controller_front-600x334.jpg Skylark, Raydek and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 3
Skylark Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 That looks nice and what looks like Sram matchmaker brake mount compatible?
Bizkit031 Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Nice pity they don't make one for Reverb because the one for Novyparts is flipping expensive.
splat Posted July 1, 2016 Posted July 1, 2016 Matthias Fluckiger's new, lightweight dropper post. Weighing in at 380 grams, it sheds over 120 grams over its rivals. Matthias has been working on it for over a year now and continues to fine tune his design. The dropper is actuated by the new Fox Transfer remote, operated from the left side of his handlebar. http://ep1.pinkbike.org/p6pb13660936/p5pb13660936.jpg http://www.pinkbike.com/news/hunting-for-gold-xc-worlds-2016.html

BDF Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) Mine is in the courier trokkie, should arrive in the next hour or so... So first impression of the company....very sleek website, easy purchase interface and automated feedback after purchase with tracking number...10/10 for experience...I agree, great service! I ordered on Monday afternoon and received first thing Wednesday (today)! Got a mail explaining the cable guides and all. (I needed the External routing) Can't wait to test it out! All I need to do now is sell some stuff to pay for it... Edited July 20, 2016 by BDF
Grey Hubs Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 (edited) Install my Lyne a few weeks ago. Works great. With a bit of help and trickery from Bicycle Supply Chain, we managed to install the internal routing on my Rocky Mountain Element (there is no dedicated routing). Dropper works well. Only issue I had is if you tighten the seatclamp to 6NM, the post sticks. Loosen this a bit till it runs smooth and no problems. Enjoy the seatpost!

You are basically ovalising the post so the internals will stick. Grey Hubs 1
Grey Hubs Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 Happens with any dropper. You are basically ovalising the post so the internals will stick.I understand, but below 6nm! I was worried about the post slipping. So far no slippage.
BDF Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 I understand, but below 6nm! I was worried about the post slipping. So far no slippage.Did you fit yours with or without a bit of carbon compound? I am fitting alu to alu and was wondering?
