The RockShox Reverb remains one of the most popular dropper posts out there, partly down to the fact that it is both reliable and easy to work on. Bleeding the system of your RockShox Reverb dropper seatpost will help keep it working in optimal condition.
It’s a fairly simple task that can be done at home with a simple bleed kit, so have a look at the video below to see BikeRadar's James Tennant talk you through the process.

It’s important to note that Reverb dropper posts require a specific 2.5 weight hydraulic fluid that’s not the same as brake fluid. So make sure you purchase the right product – it will come as part of a bleed kit though.
