Actually Karin, I would suggest we need seat posts that don’t need this "fix" at all. Fortunately my Reverb is in its 5th or 6th season. I forget. I bled the remote after a week because the shop didn’t do it well and again this year when I finally got around to shortening the hose. The Oneup on my other bike has not needed much other than a simple service a couple times a season.
My I9 101 rear hub has not been stellar either. The pawls skip maybe once every three or four rides. I’ve serviced the mechanism more than once and I see no damage or problem but it still does it. The Torch hubs on my other bike have been without issue for many seasons.
My next new full suspension bike will probably be along the lines of this bike you reviewed. Thanks for the review.
