I've had the RASE, an early KS, and the RockShox Reverb. This dropper is probably the best yet. The main reason is the stationary cable. Most other droppers have cables/hoses that move with the seat. Not a huge issue, but it can get in the way. One other thing to consider, seat clamp design. The Crank Bros Kronolog and Specialized Command Post have the bolts coming in the side, which seems like a weaker design. Newer versions may have improved, but I still don't trust them. One minor flaw with KS posts is the lever. If you tighten the clamp too tight, it binds. So if you use it as a lock on your grip, it's not doing much. Thought they would have worked that out by now, but they haven't.

I LOVE this post. I have the 125mm version on my FSR XC pro. There is absolutely no side to side play. It's infinitely adjustable which is awesome and sets it apart from the others. I love the fixed cable position too. There is a really helpful install video on you tube as well. KS got this design right with the 2 bolt rail mount which provides for an extra secure grip on the saddle. Oh and it comes with sitckers!!!! Yes plural....STICKERS!
