Rock Shox brings a load of updates for its softeners
Pike, Lyrik and ZEB suspension forks with Charger 3.1 damping
Based on the proven Charger 3 platform, RockShox has worked with its riders to make the Charger 3.1 an even more capable damper. While they have reduced the damping in the overall system, clever internal improvements have increased the adjustment range of the low-speed compression (LSC) and high-speed compression (HSC). And a wider range of settings also means more room to achieve the desired sweet spot and therefore the perfect ride feel. No matter where you ride, you can always find your perfect settings. With the new Shim Tune Kits, you can adjust the damping to suit your own preferences. The updated suspension forks also feature a new plain bearing package to achieve the lowest possible friction in an all-round improved overall system.
SuperDeluxe shocks
With the optimizations in damping, the multi-award-winning SuperDeluxe shock gets a noticeable performance boost to take it to the next level. RockShox has redesigned the main piston and reservoir to optimize oil flow and further reduce compression for better traction on flowing berms, as well as when riding over root carpets and rock gardens. For those rides where anything is possible, RockShox has updated the adjustment range of the externally adjustable compression damping to make it more usable overall and now suits even more bikes and riders and really any terrain.
Vivid Coil shocks
The Vivid Coil has that ultra-sensitive performance that is so typical of coil springs and combines it with the most advanced technologies and top features. A simple steel spring is nothing new, but the damping system, the design and the entire architecture of the Vivid Coil are. It combines all RockShox technologies in an optimally tunable suspension element for the most demanding terrain.
Developed to really master every trail, the Vivid Coil offers TouchDown technology, a travel-dependent damping system that is maximally sensitive at the beginning of the travel and yet extremely controlled in the middle and last travel range. There is also an adjustable Hydraulic Bottom-Out (AHBO) to regulate the compression damping in the last 20 percent of the suspension travel.
Updated TrailHead app
The wide range of adjustment and customization options on modern mountain bike suspensions can be a challenge for anyone. Where should you start? TrailHead is all about helping all mountain bikers get the best out of their suspension. The TrailHead app has been completely redesigned and now has a new look, with powerful images, more flow, useful video support and an improved user experience.
