The PUSH "speed service" is simply a lower (or upper😀) leg service, it has nothing to do with the damper.
While it's nice to be able to change the bath oil without dropping the legs, I clean the entire leg out when doing a lower service anyway. Injecting clean oil into a dirty fork seems counterintuitive. If you ride in wet conditions it can get nasty in there pretty quickly.
The best feature of the PUSH 9.1 speed service oil ports is that you can assemble the fork "dry" and then add bath lube after it's fully together.

Don't you complete rebuild on any other fork dry and add bath oil at the end?

Just looking at the new Maxima SG920 grease that SRAM claim is a step up from the usual suspension grease and was keen to try it in my forks. Unfortunately the service info on the SRAM site says it isn't backwards compatible and can only be used on MY27 forks, they say it will cause mayhem with older forks/seals.
Can anyone confirm this or is it BS, has anyone tried the new grease?
The Maxima site doesn't say anything about issues with using it in older products.

Slickoleum/sram butter is one of those products I've always found so good and reliable that there is literally no reason to change from it - I was thinking they might have done it to reduce the cost and stick to one manufacturer, but if thats true they certainly aren't passing those savings on 😅
It's probably really good - but so is sram butter so just use whatever you feel like or can easily get. From the little info I can get out the MSDS it just looks like calcium sulfonate grease (like slickoleum) with there own 11 herbs and spices so I don't see any reason it wouldn't be interchangeable (that would also be very stupid - All the seals are the same old elastomers)
I was told the 920 has better thermal stability and lifespan, but with slightly higher friction at ambient temp. From what I can tell, Maxima lubricant have been good so far. I have been running a the mix, but no way to really objectively measure the difference.

Ok, I just realised they will probably be comparing it to the dynamic seal grease in rear shocks (not sram butter) which I never felt worked particularly well. I don't know why, but I don't think they actually ever recommended sram butter in their air shocks? So yeah it probably is much better than the Dynamic seal grease
Correct, from everything I've seen it's butter for forks and Reverbs and DSG for shocks. Or forks with some oil added to the grease for the air spring if you're going DSG over butter.

Almost certainly BS,but I'm not brave enough to try it in my 2025 Zebs, going to stick with the SRAM butter.
I say send it! I've used, semifluid greases, a random o-ring assembly grease used in centrifugal separators, ISO 1260 oil and currently using Lubriplate low-temp grease.

Sram is using 920 as direct replacement for Sram Butter. I ran a quick check, it's supposed to have better surface tenacity. So over long cycles it should stay in place longer, which might be better for a lot of owners who seldom do fork rebuilds. Not sure why dynamic seal grease was around when sram butter seemed better.

SRAM Butter is relabeled Slick Honey, right?
A mechanic friend of mine (hi Zeb!) was told years ago by SRAM tech to use a heavier grease in shocks so they're more reliable and feel better over time. PM600 (aka military grease) was the recommendation back then, and it's still what I use when a heavier grease is appropriate.
I'm curious how this new stuff works in forks, particularly air seals. I'm sure Slick Honey/Butter feels better in the parking lot, but almost no one services their forks regularly so it's probably a good upgrade. I'm personally more interested in how my fork performs at hour 30 than hour 3 after a service.
I'm not riding it any more, but would be good to try in a Mezzer. Those felt like the best fork ever (by far) after an air piston lube, but needed more regular service to stay plush. Big downside to that fork, but maybe a heavier/longer lasting grease would be the ticket. There's a new one coming, so maybe a moot point, but a good thought experiment.
In all, going heavier should be the right call given how infrequently even my MTB addicted friends service their forks. The average rider literally never does service.

New Mezzer is already out, it has a 50hr service interval for the air spring. Yes Sram Butter, Slick Honey, Slickoleum all the same.

Yeah it will be interesting to try but it would need to be pretty spectacular to replace slickoleum on my shop....In my experience the slickoleum/Sram butter already sticks around better than everything else I've used while also being super slippery and reasonably priced so I'm curious how much they think it can be improved on?
@JVP yeah PM600 was introduced about 20 years ago now (replaced Judy butter I think!!) but I found it too sticky/tacky for suspension...lasted pretty well but definitely added more drag. I couldn't find a proper data sheet so don't know for sure but it felt more like a lithium bearing grease than a calcium thickened one you would normally use in suspension. You reminded me I have about 1/4 tube of it still, just don't ever find much use for it! Even when I did it was normally greasing springs instead of seals
Anybody else here have time on a Cane Creek Tigon yet? I’ve been curious about it since it came out (when I had a Stumpjumper Evo), and just finally picked one up for the V3 Sentinel. Honestly the most notable thing so far is how extremely normal it feels, even with a decent amount (10PSI so far) in the ramp chamber.
I really like CC’s philosophy of “set sag, start with adjusters in the middle” because it feels less like you’re deviating from the suggested setup as you dial things in.

Been running Tigon on my Levo Gen 3 since Feb 2025 (bought BF 2024). It has been good, and even better since I moved to Cascade links with the same shock. I'm running 30psi, and maybe a slightly less stiff spring than I should. That keeps the shock deeper in travel - love it on Santa Cruz steeps - but still feeling bottomless. I definitely enjoy it better than the Kitsuma DB I also have (both coil and air) - I guess I never could configure those to match Tigon feeling.
Quality-wise, it's a typical CC suspension product, I guess. I had aeration issues on the second month or so of riding, warrantied it, and it's been fine for a year or so. I should say that CC the company has been flawless user-support-wise. All the interactions were easy, not trying to haggle out, they just fixed the issues for me, which is awesome. This March '26 the shock developed a clicking sound on compression, and a local shop fixed it during a rebuild (which was waaaay overdue). My notes say I had around 3500 miles on Tigon, and I estimate about 140 rides a year.
I am on a journey to do stupid things with my enduro bike (nomad 6) and put a dual crown fork on it. Yes, I know it's not approved/rated for this and I mostly don't care. There is obviously a chance I get talked out of this by the hive mind of the vital forums... but for now, I am considering it and starting to do the research.
Interestingly enough, not quite all of the information you would need to figure this out is readily available and if it is, it is sometimes not easy to find. Since this is taking some amount of research and I still can't find every bit of info I may need, I'm going to leave my research here in case it helps someone else. There are also a few dimensions that people here may be able to provide.
Step 1 - Can you even bolt the fork to the frame. Most DH bikes have rather short head tubes and that is to fit within the crown clamping min/max dimensions of the fork. That is head tube length and resulting stack height of the frame being compatible with the crown to crown dimensions of the fork.
Step 2 - What is the resulting max steering angle when the crowns bottom out to the frame. This is impacted by crown offset (vs overall offset) and inside clear crown to crown dimensions.
I'm going to mostly focus on the most common forks on the market in the current meta. Specifically focusing on 29r forks/dimensions
