Quality materials for parts and components

Looks great. Works exactly how I wanted it to. I didn't install it myself, but the guys at my bike shop said it wasn't a problem.

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • Not sure

Revainrating 5 out of 5

High quality, easy installation at an affordable price.

Good quality, easy to use and easy to install. Much more reliable than what I bought the bike with. Fits well with my 2X11 setup. Until I can upgrade to 1X11 :)

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Expensive

Great universal lever

A great lever when you're rocking a 2x or 3x system as it places a drive plane on top of the handlebars and a vise under the shifters. Great versatile lever. You can't go wrong with this.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Some issues

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good quality overpriced but worth it compared to cheap levers

Very durable, overpriced like all other dropper post levers. Should be closer to $20. Cheap levers are not worth it, but high-quality ones are more expensive.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Great leverage and easy adjustment

I recently bought an IV pole and needed a lever for it. I chose this one as it was cheaper than many others. It was very easy to install and I didn't have to remove any switches or knobs to install it. It's very easy to add cable tension by pulling on the cable or using the barrel adjuster.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • The list will be long.

Get what you pay for.

I bought this as an alternative to a barcentric wolf tooth when the set screw broke off. It's a much more appropriate hardware size and was easy to install. However, it never worked as well as Wolf Tooth. The cable guide isn't fixed, so it wobbles a bit and never seems to get enough tension on the cable. Either the tension or the throw is wrong, but I would avoid this when used with a FOX Transfer dripper.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Cable hose not included

Lever works properly when adjusted FREQUENTLY. I've been riding it almost every day for the last week and while riding the cable keeps getting loose making the lever unusable. I installed the lever and cable at a professional bike shop who did much more complex work for me, which leads me to suspect the lever itself has a fault. The set screw holding the cable will come loose and I will tie it down to make sure it doesn't fall out again. Overall, the lever looks good, but it's overpriced and…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Volume
