Two years ago I was very impressed by BikeYoke’s Revive dropper post. In our teardown as well as on the trails it proved to be a well-designed, reliable and user-friendly post with its on-the-fly bleed function as the main differentiator. Even at around 500 CAD, I thought it was a good value proposition and gave it my recommendation.

After writing the review, I continued to use the Revive for another 10 months without any issues. Jeff at Wheelthing then performed a full service and, apart from the oil being a bit gunky, the post appeared to be in excellent condition.

BikeYoke’s goal when designing this newest dropper post was to pair the reliability of the Revive with a lighter weight and a lower price. Based on the Revive chassis, the Divine has completely new internals, is 30g lighter and comes in about 40 CAD cheaper too.
