I need an externally routed dropper post to replace a failed Rockshox. Any suggestions? Seems like there a lot of brands on the market and hard to choose.

I had the kindshox lev on the bike I sold, was very good and I got it on a good sale.

PNW makes one that’s hard to beat the price, and in my experience was very reliable

I put a KS ETEN-R on my old 26" hardtail recently.
I found it a pretty good value proposition to use on this bike as it is my backup MTB.
