The only thing I despise about the TRS+ is the two-piece shaft/head. If it wasn’t for the issues I had with it later in the post’s life (which a one-piece head/shaft like the Vario would have solved) it would still be in use.
That said, while I appreciate the user-rebuildable nature of the TRS+ (ball bearings and coil spring) I think anyone who’s opened one has to agree the quest to making a simpler & more reliable dropper ended up dreadfully complicated.
Complicated for no reason too.
I’ll take a Wintek-equipped post, or maybe a BikeYoke Divine, everyday of the week. It’s a dropper post, not a suspension fork, keep it as simple as possible while being reliable.
