iceman2058 Liked a product review Is Bigger Better? All-New Öhlins RXF 38 m.2 Reviewed
7/22/2021 11:02pm
Last year, Öhlins signed a few new OEM agreements which saw their suspension products being specced on bikes from Mondraker, Commencal and Intense, among others. At the time, Öhlins also introduced a new, 38-mm singlecrown fork, but it was designed specifically for ebikes and made available as an OEM product only. Today, the company is releasing the brand new RXF 38 m.2, an aftermarket version of that fork that is suitable for regular old mountain bikes as well. We were fortunate enough to receive one a couple of months ago, so we’re here today to tell you all about how...

I completely agree. I see enduro and DH frames morphing into the same thing with different components hung off them. After all they are built to do the same job - getting down a hill as fast as possible. DH bikes just don't need to pedal back up.

7/15/2021 4:44am Demogate was Protours rants about how unsafe the Spec Demo was. I think Waki is still around just under a different name. He commented on some articles a few months back.

Thanks for pointing me in the direction of the m2 review. I have been riding a coil m2 on the front of my Murmur (TTX on the rear) since Xmas and really like it. It is interesting to see how the "best on the market" EXT performs in comparison. I will certainly be looking out for the "something new" from Ohlins.

it would be interesting to see how the EXT compares to an Ohlins 36m2 air/coil.

How are the forks? I have an Ohlins coil on the rear and am going to upgrade my old Pikes to Ohlins coils.

IIRC Chris Porter completed similar timed tests and runs dual crown forks.

I am surprised it hasn't happened already. Maybe pros are being "told" what to run by sponsors. I'm sure RS and F don't want their riders on Boxxers / 40s when the Zebs and 38s have just been released. If I were a racer I would sure give it a go. At the end of the day enduro bikes are DH bikes that can be pedalled.

They're great and very versatile frames from what I have read on the Geometron thread on mtbr. Love the dust coating as well.

Wow, that's a stunner. I'm not usually a fan of tweener wheels but they look really good on the G1.
