4/7/2026 9:43am Well this is interesting! However, seems like SRAM does not offer any multi-click (rapidfire) mechanical shifters (non-Transmission) anymore...

4/7/2026 7:23am The remaining RockShox forks and shocks are finally officially live: Zeb - https://www.vitalmtb.com/forums/hub/2027-rockshox-zeb-fork-tech-info-im… Lyrik and Super Deluxe - https://www.vitalmtb.com/features/first-look-my27-rockshox-lyrik-fork-a… Vivid - https://www.vitalmtb.com/product/guide/rear-shocks/rockshox/vivid-ultim… There is a lot of trickle down tech that was first released with Boxxer and Vivid Coil. My time has been most spent on the new Zeb, and it's been really really impressive. So much grip, really light off the top and easy on the hands, new ABO adjustment is really useful and impactful, and the fork has felt the same day in and day out. It's definitely linear, so has a different feel. More muted and calm...

4/5/2026 3:12am On the topic "SRAM stuff": Maybe some limited Maven+Motive Sets again And love some more options for the Flight Attendant shocks, too. Everything but the SuperDeluxe Ultimate FA and the SIDLuxe FA are OEM only (right?). Would really like some options for smaller bikes like the Reya thats not the SIDLuxe FA "Bad Habit" looks sick!

4/4/2026 7:10pm Definitely a difference in feel with my 170mm 29 Zeb Ultimate 2.1 damper generation when going from standard hub caps to torque caps on my i9 Hydra front hub. I preferred the torque caps stiffer feel, but I’m taller and heavier than the average rider.
