Krispy- glad you guys are having a good experience! 2 clicks LSC moves you up or down a tune (roughly), so you start in the middle and have 2 clicks more or 2 clicks less- so you can basically move up or down one full tune. The HSC garden hose description is a good way to visualize it- the flow goes through an oval shaped hole and the adjuster can vary the size of the opening (from full open to about 1/3 open). Low-speed evens would be like a trickle of water coming out of a hose- use your thumb...

Yes, it is better overall. DHX shocks cannot provide adequate damping without a custom tune, have reliability issues and Fox's SLS coil springs last just over a season of hard riding, meaning you need a new spring almost every season. The 2023 SD Ultimate is designed by a former Fox engineer funnily enough, so it has a few quirks, I'm looking at you random brass pin (yay lets clean brass shavings out of a damper now).

Oh, @Krispy , this is what I use to bleed an air Super Deluxe (it has a port on the damper body as well): Aliexpress syringes (because Rock Shox ones broke, the nozzle cracks off and can cause a jet of oil to paint the wall if you're unlucky), clips, luerlock fittings, an M4 to barb fitting and a custom turned fitting to fit the imperial thread of the damper body of the shock.

There are a lot of stupid people in the comments (me included) and mr. Camp is not one of them from my understanding.

Regarding the 2023 Super Deluxe, Disclaimer- I don't have dyno readings ;-) I've had the good fortune of receiving support from Rockshox for my race team 'RaceKraft' which is a Jr Devo team. We have 6 bikes set up with the Super Deluxe Ultimate Coil. I'm a total shock nerd and have spent some time revalving these shocks for my...

I pick appropriately sized chainstays for the front center personally.

I see machined chainstays and seatstays, parts like a yoke and dropouts to make said parts. The main BB basement has a hole on one side which could be a link or shock mount. A shock mount is located under the seat mast area. 6 bar with some lower swing link?

I have this fork, i feel like the rebound clicks can be a bit difficult to notice a difference.

Are people aware that it takes soft jaws and a blowtorch/heat gun to service the air spring on a 38? Not cool!

For most everyone under 6' tall the mullet is just so much easier to move your body around on than a full 29er. And the theres no question the 29er in the front is fantastic traction and plowing. When I ride full 27.5' now my hands feel way too low, even with ton of stack height. The mullet really is the dream!

Yeti mounts the pull rod to the side of the link to make the lower link “switch” directions mid stroke similar to their Switch Infinity design to limit chain growth since it doesn’t use an idler. The bearings are fairly large and the linkage is robust. I imaging the Yeti benefits from improved braking traction over their previous design but I believe they did it more for packaging around the e bike motor. Maybe we’ll see it used for pedal bikes in the future.

Well we still don’t know much about this six bar. The three upper links (outer upper left and right links plus shock link) must be tied together with some sort of hex axle to make it all work. Maybe they have some tricks up their sleeves but they’re not trying to hide. Either way it looks pretty sick. I thought maybe they’d be trying to sell some this year. I’ve never seen a new bike launch where people are still excited about the V4 version that people still have on order. What a crazy time
