I dont really think 2 different droppers would change your time on timed course since they can't really do that, its not a direct performance enhancement like a fork or tires.

I'm always tempted to get an AXS dropper but biggest benefit to me is not having to deal with internal routing when I do the initial setup. I've had One Up and PNW droppers and they've been great so getting an axs dropper is just not worth the additional cost to me like getting an AXS groupset is. When it comes to swapping the seatpost between bikes, it is easy to move the seatpost between them, but the controller requires you to take off the grip and possibly the brake lever to slide it out unless you get a clamp for each bike, then it's just not worth the time it takes when a regular dropper is already good to go.
@EvansMTBSaga
@EvansMTBSaga 2 года назад
The dropper remote can unbolt from the clamp, and you'd need another clamp on the other bike. But I see what you're saying. I've swapped the dropper between bikes a few times now, but I think I'll ultimately not keep the Reverb AXS because I have similar feelings

One question. I'm 2:35 into the video. Are you adding friction paste or regular grease? If it's grease, apply as little as you can, just to stop it from binding, otherwise your seat will rotate and ask for more clamp force which can damage clamp, frame or even seat post. Not trying to be smart, just to help some folks.
@EvansMTBSaga
@EvansMTBSaga 2 года назад
Regular grease. I usually grease it up, but I took the glove and rubbed it in super thin this time to avoid creaking. But you recommend friction grease instead? I love learning new tricks

Droppers are weird, as the oneup is in reality the best one on the market for practical use, lots of travel options, low stack, low insert and good actuation/reliable. the AXS Rockshox is very good performance wise and you get to remove a cable, but for me put it in this perspective: oneup 240 dropper, $320NZD. they last years with rebuilds and bigger shims available for play with one downside of a cable vs the RS AXS, max 170mm travel, battery $1500nzd... two upsides, performs best on market and no cable. Most dream builds dont even bother with AXS reverb. and yes, i can afford one and used to have one on my Enduro bike.

@@EvansMTBSaga Thanks for the answer. I did research and you can actually take off the reverb electronic hardware and dye it.

I asked them if maybe they could anodize the stanchions with their own anodizing baths and techniques from a good old al pipe with the same dimensions and holes of the reverb’s stanchion but shave 1mm off for the paint clearance.

Nothing wrong with 2x. Get a dropper.

For a budget dropper post another good one is x fusion manic dropper. Smooth and is a work horse.

@@EvansMTBSaga I agree with the development in technology is the last couple years even the budget parts are of good quality for the average rider. Awesome series you have got going on.

I really want to see what brakes and drivetrain you will put on low bike hmm

Low bike is getting mid/upper tier surprisingly

i suggest that you install shimano deore to the low bike because for me shimano deore 11 speed was the best budget groupo you can buy the only difference with the high end xt and xtr is the material, but for me shiman deore is the best budget groupo
