The install was alot easier than I thought, I followed along with the youtube video released by Wolf Tooth. The undertaking sounds scary when watching the video, but in practice everything has gone smooth for both installs I have done. I do have the A version of the post, and the snap ring ended up being the most frustrating part to deal with. You need a narrow set of snap ring pliers to fit inside of the lip on the post or you will struggle with getting the clip out. I highly recommend getting snap ring pliers, it can be done without, but not easily.
Installing the lever was a breeze if you have installed a shifter before you can install this lever. If your bike has internal routing this might slow you down, but that is not the fault of the sustain system. I like a very fast post return, so I have the lever set with alot of tension, but you can slow the post by having less tension on the cable. This will require more lever throw to work if you decrease the tension though.
Thoughts when riding is that this system works great. The lever has texture on it which adds grip, and the shape and location feel similar to a shifter lever so it is very intuitive. The post returns consistently and smoothly, and I have yet to have any issues, even in cold whether, which slowed the post way down with the old hydraulic line. The cable does stretch out after a few rides, but you simply twist the barrel adjuster a few times and are back to having solid performance. Not having to worry about bleeding the lines or having a slow post in cold weather has been huge, and makes the post totally worth it to me. I have also found the lever to be easier to push and simply better than the old plunger style lever, and even the 1x lever from Rockshox. I did crash with the system and the plastic bushing in the lever broke, but this was by design to prevent damage to the more expensive parts of the lever. I got cheap replacements from Wolf Tooth and carry one in my pack as a backup. I like that a $4 part breaks rather than a $60 lever.
I can honestly say that this has been an amazing upgrade to my bike, and leaves me worry free over my dropper. A little on the pricey side, but the frustrations it eliminates makes it all worth it!
