Bleed wasn't right. If there is any air in the system at all, no action. Make sure when you bleed, both ports are at the highest point, and no air is being introduced from the syringes.Hi,
Got a reverb stealth from crc today, installed it. It will not drop what so ever, have given it a bleed but it still will not drop even with full weight on it.
Anyone know how to fix this or had the same problem?
Cheers Ben
I'm stumped. either this is something due for immediate repost into the fuckwit thread or there must be something properly cooked within the triggering mechanism inside the post.
Fixed if for ya!Two common issues that cause it not to compress:
1. Need to bleed it properly
2. If it still doesn't work, see rule 1

It is common for Reverb's to need a bleed out of the box, relax, take your time and follow the video and you will have a functioning Reverb.Yep, thanks for that.
Problems solved
Why put up with that?It is common for Reverb's to need a bleed out of the box, relax, take your time and follow the video and you will have a functioning Reverb.
Agreed, Cables are sure, tangible and metallic.Why put up with that?
Worth it IMO, all dropper posts require some form of maintenance. Why cut a cable to length? Why put up with cables and mechanisms getting full of crud?Why put up with that?
Why put up with wheels that need a true, mechanical drive trains that wear, paint that chips, suspension that needs seals and oil replaced, bearings that size, BBs that creak? Our bikes cop a flogging in pretty hostile environments, there is always going to be something that needs maintenance on them. Droppers are a relatively new technology and are still evolving. It's pretty obvious from the other thread that they all have their idiosyncrasies, which are not experienced by every user, of every brand. And honestly, every moving part (and some static parts) on a mountain bike is a compromise.Worth it IMO, all dropper posts require some form of maintenance. Why cut a cable to length?

Pffffft, I'd prefer hydraulic over those twoHydrolic over cable any day.
My point exactly - take your choice on hydraulic or cable. The OP's question was Reverb won't work, all I did was point out that 99.9% of all Reverb issues come down to the bleed.Why put up with wheels that need a true, mechanical drive trains that wear, paint that chips, suspension that needs seals and oil replaced, bearings that size, BBs that creak?

Sign me up for the spelling deePffffft, I'd prefer hydraulic over those two
