WTB: Dropper Lever
Need a lever for my fat bike's dropper and wanted to see if anyone had one kicking around before I drop $70 on a new one. Standard bar mount, not picky but the below the bar type is preferable. Thanks.

I bought a couple ZTTO dropper levers this spring in case I didn't like the XT version my new bike came with. They're knockoffs of the WolfTooth ReMote and are relatively well reviewed considering they retail for about $25. They were discussed here at some point, I think that's how I found out about them so other mags might be able to give you actual feedback.
I never installed them as I don't have issues with the Shimano lever. If you're interested I can put one in the mail for you for what I paid for it, it will save you from having to wait a month for it to show up from China.

I have a Fox Transfer lever I can give away. Has the two stage trigger but works fine as just single push.

I'll second that 25 dollar lever. Smooth as buttah. I replaced one of those cheapo rocker style levers. Huge difference

Good to know. I'll never understand why some companies charge so much for these levers.

Sorry, just shipped it to HankScorpio.
If you're in no rush the level is constantly on Alibaba and occasionally on Amazon. I had never bought anything on AB, figured it would be a cheap mistake if it didn't work out but everything went smoothly (with the expected 1+ month shipping time)."Your wife being mad is temporary, but pow turns do not get unmade" - mallwalker the wise

I'm gonna bump this and take it over since Hank was so lucky.
I'm not sure the DOSS will work with my Fox Transfer. Anyone have another option?

if th cable end is at the lever (not at the post) I've taken apart a shifter and made a dropper lever with that. Works well
