Pros & Cons
Pros & Cons
- This wireless dropper post is the perfect addition to your SRAM AXS group, and uses the same battery.
- When the saddle is slightly lowered, the dropper post acts as a suspension seatpost for extra comfort.
- Thanks to a wide range of travel options, you can find the most suitable model using the Reverb calculator.
- The new Air-over-Air design makes the dropper post more robust and durable, with all electronics incorporated into the seatpost.
- This dropper post is compatible with all saddle rails (7x7, 7x9, 7x10).
- The dropper post comes without a remote control. The SRAM Eagle AXS POD Rocker Left can be ordered along with it.

ActiveRide Technology
With an enlarged positive pressure chamber, this Reverb dropper post is extra firm when at its highest point and feels like a normal seatpost. When the saddle is lowered slightly to enhance control and balance on rough sections, the dropper post acts as a suspension seatpost.
AXS Technology
Battery run time for this dropper post is around 40 hours; it uses the same batteries as the SRAM AXS drivetrains, and so they can be changed during a ride. If the battery is dead, it only takes an hour to recharge.
With many different drop sizes, which is your ideal one? Start by choosing a dropper with the right diameter. Then you will need to choose between different travel (or drop) lengths. A longer drop makes for more control but also adds more weight - your frame must to be able to handle this. To check this, use SRAM's handy Reverb calculator that lets you easily find the right size dropper with two simple measurements.

A simpler design than the previous generation
My previous Reverb AXS (Generation A) had already been sent back twice in the space of a few years due to the infamous ‘squishiness’ issue. By the third time, I’d had enough and bought this one as a replacement. The Reverb AXS B2 (identical to the B1, except the battery charger is USB-C) is much simpler in design, so the oil-air mixing problem has been eliminated. Maintenance should also be much simpler. The downside, however, is that the dropper is less stiff than its predecessor. At maximum stroke, the dropper post flexes by 2–3 mm (not noticeable), and at shorter strokes, the dropper post flexes in a way that’s both noticeable and audible. SRAM calls this “ActiveRide”, but for me it adds little. The dropper post comes without a controller, but I was able to use the old one as normal. Hopefully, this design is genuinely better and will last a bit longer than the previous generation.

There’s virtually no play in it and it runs really smoothly. That’s why I chose this one

-
AXS is still brilliant, with super-fast response
-
Battery interchangeable with the derailleur battery
-
Better design than the previous generation Reverb AXS
-
A few millimetres of sag at maximum stroke
-
The battery at the bottom isn’t the most attractive, but you get used to it quickly
