It was given a significant overhaul in 2019, inside and out. Wireless treatment aside, the Reverb post is a top performer. You can also connect both the post and remote via Bluetooth to the SRAM AXS app, which monitors battery life and logs mileage.
We’ve found that the post will last for around 40 hours of riding before it needs charging (which only takes an hour), while the remote’s battery (a CR2032) should last a couple of years. This is done by pushing each of the components’ AXS buttons, whose LEDs also allow you to check battery life.
The remote and post communicate using SRAM’s encrypted wireless network and, once bolted in, need to be synced in order to work. With no cable or hose to thread through your frame, installation is pain-free. Like parent brand SRAM’s Eagle AXS electronic gear-shifting, the Reverb AXS dropper works wirelessly. SRAM reckons the post lasts around 40 hours of ride time before it’ll need charging.
