Well my reverb has busted its seals and needs to be sent off for repair. I've had enough of them now really, 2 reverbs have both had issues so it's time for a change, what do I need from one I hear you ask?
Internal routing, 150mm drop or greater.
Not much, with a budget of around £270 as well. Any ideas guys?

KS LEV from ze Chormans? Think the stealth version is called the Integra. I've got the normal version on my Bird and I really rate it.

My ks lev intergrated is sagging by a couple of cms only three rides after being sent back by jungle and having some arts replaced. Got to drop it at the lbs tomorrow, last chance saloon.
However He won't swap it out for a reverb as he refuses to stock them due to the percentage of returns, nearly all, and losing money on the postage back and forth on them each time.
He reckons mine is the first lev he's had with issues that he couldn't fix himself. Lucky me.

There are a few droppers on the market these days, even more coming to the market.. You're not short on choice!
Personally, I'll be sticking with the Reverb. Still, by far, the better dropper on the market today!

Sadly mines pretty much unusable now, so I've had to get one (haven't got a quick release seat clamp either to make matters worse), so I've gone with a KS Lev Integra, should be here within a few days.

Don't forget a review. Having had both, they are both brilliant, when they work. I love the LEVS action and feel, but the reverb is a lot cheaper.

£150. Cool. Why get a LEV then for double that? For the weight weenies - the Eten is a shit load heavier and is a different activating position (under the seat). Might not be a massive difference but it's there. Actually, I don't know where the stealth actuates so it's just weight.

What happened to that super cheap one that Decathlon brought out? They don't seem to list it now.
