Product Details

Overview & Technology

Genuine RockShox replacement for the Reverb Stealth seatpost, part number 00.6815.066.030 (SRAM TL-RVBT-BC-A1). This small but critical barb connector creates the sealed mechanical interface between hydraulic hose and the stealth routing port of your Reverb dropper. The connector is precision-machined for consistent outer diameter and a reliable barbed profile that grips hydraulic hose inner liners. Its corrosion-resistant construction and engineered sealing surfaces minimize the risk of leaks and preserve hydraulic performance under pressure and repeated use.

Key Features & Benefits

Precision fit: Built to RockShox tolerances so the hose seats correctly every time, reducing flat spots, pinching, or misalignment that can cause leaks or poor actuation. Durability where it matters: Corrosion-resistant metal and a smooth sealing face combine for long service life even in wet, muddy, and highly variable mountain conditions. Replacing a worn barb restores crisp lever feel and prevents hydraulic fluid loss. • OEM part for Reverb Stealth posts (00.6815.066.030) • Designed for hydraulic sealing and secure hose retention • Small, lightweight replacement — ships and stores easily (0.03 lb)

Fit, Compatibility & Installation

This part is specifically made for RockShox Reverb Stealth dropper posts and matches SRAM model ID TL-RVBT-BC-A1. It replaces the original stealth barb connector in Reverb Stealth assemblies and is intended for riders using internal-steerer or stealth-routed seatposts. Installation is straightforward for a mechanically competent home mechanic or pro shop: remove the old barb, clean the hose and port, slide the hose onto the new barb to the recommended depth and secure according to RockShox torque and cutting/finishing instructions. Always inspect O-rings and hose condition when replacing fittings and bleed the system after installation to purge air and confirm leak-free operation.

Who This Is For

Mountain bikers who own a RockShox Reverb Stealth dropper post and need an OEM replacement barb — whether for routine maintenance, to repair a leak, or after re-tubing or hose-trimming. It’s an essential service part for riders who want reliable hydraulic performance and original-spec fit. Also ideal for bike shops, trail mechanics, and home wrenchers who keep parts on hand for quick field repairs or regular overhauls. If you value crisp actuation and leak-free operation, replacing a worn barb connector is a cost-effective way to restore performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this barb connector fit any Reverb post?

This part is specifically for Reverb Stealth models and corresponds to SRAM model ID TL-RVBT-BC-A1. It is intended for internally routed Reverb Stealth seatposts; external Reverb models or other brands may use a different barb design.

Do I need special tools to install it?

Basic tools and steady hands are sufficient for removing and installing the barb, but a workstand and hose cutting tools help. Follow RockShox instructions for hose seating depth, and always bleed the system after installation to remove air and confirm sealing.

How can I tell the old barb needs replacing?

Common signs include persistent hydraulic fluid leaks at the connection, spongy or inconsistent lever feel, or visible damage to the barb or hose end. If you’ve trimmed the hose or serviced the post, replacing the barb is recommended to ensure a fresh seal.

Should I replace O-rings when changing the barb?

Yes. Inspect and replace O-rings and any small sealing components during service. Fresh O-rings ensure optimal sealing and reduce the chance of leaks after reassembly and bleeding.

Can I install this as a field repair on trail?

If you carry basic tools and spare O-rings, you can perform a temporary field swap; however, final seating, cutting, and bleeding are best completed in a workshop to ensure proper sealing and lever performance.

Is this an OEM RockShox part and is it covered by warranty?

This is a genuine RockShox replacement part (00.6815.066.030). Warranty coverage depends on the original product warranty and the circumstances of failure; consult RockShox/SRAM warranty terms or Forest Bikes support for guidance.

Buying Guide

When buying a replacement barb for a Reverb Stealth dropper, always match the OEM part number (00.6815.066.030) or SRAM model ID to ensure compatibility. Consider buying a small service kit with replacement O-rings and a bleed kit at the same time — these small extras prevent repeat visits to the workshop and guarantee a complete, reliable repair. For installation, if you’re comfortable with basic hydraulic servicing, prepare the correct hose cutter, clean workspace, and RockShox bleed instructions. Otherwise, a shop install ensures correct seating, leak-proof sealing, and properly bled hydraulics.
