Topic: Let's talk dropper posts...

Depends on the frame, there is usually a cable hole right by the head tube to run it internally. Followed by either a second hole close to you seat tube to run it vertically up the inside of the seat tube. The second option is to fish it up through the seat tube using a coat hanger

Thanks, I was leaning towards that option. It looks like this dropper runs the cable inside the frame? I was cleaning my new bike yesterday and didn't notice a spot for the cable to come out, unless it just comes out the bottom of the headtube? I'd think that would look silly, but what do I know lol.

Oh, so that's your WRB that I always see parked out back.    Nice car!

Not sure the big differences between the Lev and Eten, but I got the Eten for less than $175. I'm sure it's heavier, and less travel, but also half the price.

The eten is a good post, the only down side is its not serviceable without sending it away to the manufacture.

I'm very happy with my Eten post, great value for the money. That said, I just got an email from Bow Cycle about their Black Friday deal, and they have a RS Reverb on sale for $199:

SEATPOST ROCKSHOX 30.9 REVERB 4? 420MM   $489.99   $199.99 https://www.bowcycle.com/sales/black-friday/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Bow%20Cycles%20Black%20Friday%20Sale%20is%20Tomorrow&utm_content=Bow%20Cycles%20Black%20Friday%20Sale%20is%20Tomorrow+CID_f56bdaec99d77148eae326133e942f0a&utm_source=Email%20marketing%20software

Thought I'd share as it's a great price.

Edit: damn, they have a Fox Float for only $229. Wish it would fit my bike
