Your handlebar picks the lever
We carry three Wolf Tooth dropper levers, and the first cut is simple. If your bike has drop bars, you want the Wolf Tooth ReMote Drop Bar. If your bike has flat or riser mountain bars and the left side is crowded with a front shifter, a lockout lever or e-bike controls, you want the Wolf Tooth ReMote BarCentric or the Wolf Tooth ReMote 360.
All three are made for cable-actuated dropper posts, and none of them includes cable or housing.
Wolf Tooth built the ReMote Drop Bar for gravel bikes, drop bar mountain bikes and road bikes. You can press it from the hoods or the drops.
The ReMote BarCentric wraps around a 22.2mm mountain bar on a sealed bearing, so it fits beside a front shifter, lockout or e-bike controls.
The ReMote 360 is a joystick-style lever you can push or pull in any direction. It mounts left or right, above or below a 22.2mm bar.
Wolf Tooth ReMote Drop Bar
The Wolf Tooth ReMote Drop Bar uses an outboard clamp, which Wolf Tooth says keeps it out of the way of your hands. Wolf Tooth says it works with 1x or 2x drivetrains, mechanical or electronic, and with all cable-actuated dropper posts on drop bar bikes. The pivot runs on two stacked cartridge bearings, so the lever has no side-to-side play.
The Wolf Tooth ReMote Drop Bar mounts on the bar just below the brake hood. You reach it with your fingers from the hoods or from the drops, the same way you reach a brake lever.
Two setup notes from Wolf Tooth. It fits standard drop bars with a 24mm outer diameter. And it needs an inline barrel adjuster to set cable tension, which Wolf Tooth sells separately.
Wolf Tooth ReMote BarCentric
The Wolf Tooth ReMote BarCentric is made for mountain bikes with front shifters, lockout levers or e-bike controls on the left. It wraps around the bar on a large sealed bearing and needs only 15mm of bar space. The lever has four position options and adjustable reach, which Wolf Tooth says helps it clear your other controls.
Wolf Tooth's photo shows the ReMote BarCentric sharing the left side of the bar with a front shifter. Because the BarCentric wraps around the bar, it fits in the space beside the shifter.
Two fit checks. Wolf Tooth says the BarCentric works with most cable-actuated dropper posts, but not the Fox Transfer SL. It works whether your post has the cable's barrel end at the lever or at the post.
Wolf Tooth ReMote 360
The Wolf Tooth ReMote 360 is the most adjustable of the three. The joystick works in any direction, the 22.2mm clamp rotates around the bar, and the lever spins 360 degrees around its base. Wolf Tooth calls it ideal for cockpits with a lockout lever and e-bikes with left side controls. It pulls up to 8mm of cable.
The Wolf Tooth ReMote 360 shown here is mounted under the bar. You can push or pull it in any direction to drop the post.
37g / 41g / 34gWolf Tooth lists the ReMote Drop Bar at 37g, the ReMote BarCentric at 41g and the ReMote 360 at 34g.
Not for drop barsWolf Tooth says the ReMote 360 is not compatible with drop bars. The BarCentric is also for 22.2mm mountain bars only.
No cable includedNone of the three Wolf Tooth ReMote levers comes with cable or housing.
Replaceable partsEvery component of the ReMote 360 and ReMote Drop Bar is sold on its own, so you can replace one damaged part instead of the whole lever.
One thing none of the three offers: a Shimano I-Spec or SRAM MatchMaker mount. All three clamp straight to the bar.
We carry the Wolf Tooth ReMote Drop Bar Lever, the Wolf Tooth ReMote BarCentric Dropper Lever and the Wolf Tooth ReMote 360 Dropper Lever.

Before you order a dropper lever
Check your bar type first, then look at what is already on the left side of your bar. Confirm your dropper post is cable-actuated. Wolf Tooth's ReMote BarCentric page and its other ReMote pages list full specs.
Questions about your dropper post? Ask us. If you want the Lab to install the lever and run the cable, that is billed bench work.
