Actually, it has been out much longer than that. I believe we started working on the RUNT in 2012. The first RUNT was designed for the original Lyrik. We have had a lot of set backs and a lot to learn along the way that have delayed it. We have been selling them locally for a few...more

I've got the RUNT plugged in to my 2019 Fox 36 with the Grip 2 damper. I opted to just plug it in and not tune the damper at all in an effort to change one variable at a time. At the time, I was also considering throwing the Push ACS3 coil kit into the fork in order to better match the supple feel of my PUSH 11.6 rear shock. After installing the RUNT, I was amazed in the increase in small bump compliance, and I feel like the external adjustability of the Grip 2 allowed me to get really close. Being able to adjust both ends of the spectrum also allowed me to fine-tune the amount of progression depending on differing race tracks and scenarios. This is something I struggled with a ton running the 11.6 on the Evil Wreckoning. I went up 2 spring weights and the guys at PUSH did some customizing on the high speed compression circuit to try and get a more progressive feel.
Needless to say, I think the RUNT ended up being the better option between the ACS3 Coil Conversion. More adjustability, and you don't compromise future air spring use.

There are a variety of similar products on the market. The DSD kit differs in that it includes valving updates as well. To my knowledge, the RUNT has been patent-pending since at least 2015.

Whoever commented about the reds clashing I have to agree. This is WC racing. Trek does custom paint on a lot of their consumer bikes anyway. Match the damn reds! EDIT; 5'9" on an XL!? wow.

I've been discussing the theory of this product with some my customers who are interested in potentially buying one. I think the real challenge is putting it on the right frame. Because the headangle doesn't change as much through the stroke, you don't need a...more

That was a treat to watch. Hope Minnaar is healthy for next race season. I think the old dog has some wins left in him if he's in one piece.

Is the shock offset or is the reservoir really sticking out on the driveside? That seems problematic.
