Thanks Droo, your input is always valuable.

 

Lies and slander. Sometimes I talk utter crap.

 

(Just not usually in the tech area...)

My Spez stealth dropper is losing Hydraulic pressure or something (ie when it was new it used to elevate back with venom and now it comes back very slowly. Is it because it has grit inside the post or do they lose pressure?/ Any DIY guys out there any advice will be appreciated

 

They're pretty simple to rebuild, you just need a few o-rings and you'll be hundreds again.

 

on how to do the standard one, the stealth will be pretty similar except that the valve will be at the top and the cable at the bottom.

Can the Spez posts be fully rebuilt DIY?

That's just a Reverb with different branding!

It's mechanicaly actuated with 125mm of Travel.

Reverb is hydraulicly actuated with 150mm of travel.

My Reverb is only 100mm 

 

But you're 100% correct on the mechanical actuation

Looks more like the KS versions to me... The i900/i950/supernatural or whatever the one was without the setback.

From collar to saddle, it's all KS, but the whole bottom part looks just like my Reverb (the silver collar one is old. The new black collar one is very similar to this)

I wish my reverb had 150mm travel

My spez dropper seems to be losing hydraulic pressure quite quickly.  I have to pump it every 2 rides, whats going on?
