If you care more about how your lever looks and less about comfort, you might choose the more neutral colored black Wolf Tooth ReMote. The Loam Lever’s injection molded rubber thumb pad and ergonomics are what my thumb likes over the ReMote. To sum things up I think both of these levers are ultra high quality and offer the best of what’s currently available for dropper levers. The ReMote has sharper angles and edges that don’t feel quite as comfy. I prefer the angle of the Loam, the shape of the lever and the soft rubber thumb when I’m not wearing gloves. Ergonomics and comfort are the two areas I believe the Loam lever pushes ahead of the ReMote. Multiple clamps are available if you prefer a handlebar clamp or cleaner matchmaker style mounting. Both can be adjusted in or out 5-10mm without moving the clamp on the handlebar. Some sharp edges on the back of the lever – not anything that could come in contact with the thumb, but noticeable when installingīoth the ReMote and the Loam Lever offer similar options and adjustments.3 colors options available for thumb rubbers to match your ride.Ultra comfortable and grippy molded rubber thumb lever contact.High-quality machining rolling on sealed bearing.Super smooth and high leverage makes actuating the dropper nearly effortless.Without gloves, the levers textured machining is abrasive – like sandpaper on the thumb.Black anodized finish matches everything.Clamp options from Shimano IS, Matchmaker and stand-alone clamp.No slip machined textured lever has plenty of grip.Rolls on a sealed bearing and available in high leverage “light action” version.The ReMote and Loam Lever take ergonomics and quality to the next level and as a result are two favorite upgrades to the stock levers that come on most bikes. Most dropper levers are tiny, roll on bushings, are pinned together and use set screws to fasten the cable. Comfort and ergonomics are now more important than ever. It’s great to have the option of these two since we’ve adapted to using this touch point nearly as much as we use shift levers. Since I’ve had some folks asking about these two here’s a quick take on the Wolf Tooth ReMote VS PNW Loam dropper levers. These two levers both sport refined high leverage ratio’s (optional on ReMote) and super smooth sealed bearings that put them in a different class than other levers. After finding the desired positioning, torque the fastener to 2Nm using a torque wrench.Two of the hottest dropper levers on the market now are finally giving some welcome refinement to our controls.Once the Shifter Lever is slid over the round assembly, thread the fastener in and now you can line the indicator line on the Shifter Lever with where you want it positioned on the shifter.Make sure the fastener is removed out of the Shifter Lever so that it can be slid onto the round assembly of the shifter body.Remove lever off of the round assembly on the shifter body.Remove the smaller Torx (T25) screw that clamps the lever onto the lever (NOT the bolt on the bottom of the shifter) completely from your Sram X01 or XX1 shifter.Shifty lever is to replace Sram's lower Pull Lever only.Only compatible with Sram X01 and XX1 Shifters. ![]() Made with the Loam Lever’s “yoga pad for your thumb” this guy is that extra bit of style to make you smile each time you hop on your bike.
