A mate had one and thought it was great, not sure about the ease of installation as he's pretty handy with a spanner anyway. What's wrong with the one that comes with the 2019 then, worth giving it a go for a while surely ?

Ah OK, sorry! A few people on here have mentioned the Brand X dropper that Chain Reaction Cycles sell as being really good and a lot cheaper than the Fox one. Might be worth considering to save some more money. I see you are in Belgium but CRC ship overseas no problem.

I don't think the fox comes in 34.9. For 2019 the levo has a 34.9 seat post diameter. I'm getting a Rock Shox Reverb Stealth for mine.

It's a bitch to install so I was told by the dealer. My lbs gave up. The dealer eventually did it. Used a shim too works as should. Just wish they did a 175 in gold

I installed the Rock Shox Reverb Stealth and I thought it was fairly easy. The manual will show you how to route the line from the handle bars to the seat post. Once you see the wire or hydraulic tube in my case, you need to grab it and pull it up.

You'll need something like this tool

The rest of the install is fairly straight forward and depends on what dropper you have. Lots of youtube videos that are dropper post specific.
Very pleased with the Reverb so far.
good luck
