Rockshox Reverb dropper seatpost squashing from new I have a new bike with factory-fitted Reverb Stealth dropper seatpost. Having never had one before, I would like to know what movement you would expect on a seatpost if any. If I lift the bike up by the saddle, the post extends a bit if it’s not already at the top of its extension. This may be normal but I wanted to check.

The movement I’m getting that is more concerning is the squash that I get on the seat. It drops up to 1 cm. I’m not sure whether it needs a bleed, air pressure check or what. Any thoughts?

Yes, it is normal. reverb works like that.


  It drops up to 1 cm


Also possible and fine.

Just do regular maintanance and it will last.
