3/26/2023 8:19am It's a kind of a partial block that changes the flow rate of oil on to the base valve, since reducing the cross section creates higher-velocity flow through that region. The analogy of putting your thumb over the end of a garden hose is most commonly used here - you limit the size of the hole so the water escapes the hose at higher speed (even once its left the hose and in to an "infinitely" wide region). It never fully closes, and the cross section of the valve is still pretty large so not directly adding much damping on...

3/24/2023 2:04pm Thanks for the input, validates how I feel with the fork. Charger feels good in most scenario but those quick square edge hits are harsh. Lesson learned not to always hop on the latest tech. I'll probably send it out for a tune to see if I can address that issue.

3/23/2023 7:13pm I'd like to understand how charger 3 works on the new rockshox fork and how they designed low and high speed compression to be independent of each other. If I close low speed based on their diagram, oil is only flowing through the high speed circuit but it looks like oil flow path for high speed is less restrictive than...

3/23/2023 5:31am I thought 3VO behaved like the Sine or Switch design where the lower link changes directions through the cycle but looking at Ministry IG looks like it behaves like dw/giant

3/22/2023 7:53pm Not entirely sure what the exact technical term but there seems to be a classification of these type of suspension design like yeti switch infinity and alchemy sine, two short linkage where the bottom link changes direction.

3/19/2023 5:18am my guess it tells Loic if hes green or red on each of the splits

2/22/2023 4:27pm Bottom bracket seems to make sense too, since they have experience making things that spin with bearings in them.

2/6/2023 9:31am Pretty sure it's the twinloc, maybe it looks tiddy from that angle.

11/8/2022 4:22pm It was said in an interview or podcast that Bruni was supposed to ride the prototype in the second half of the season but the collarbone break derailed the plan.

6/13/2022 5:51am They do. The session has it as well. It's a way to add some more torsional rigidity to a rocker link without a bridge connecting the sides. Not even near the rigidity of that solution as it's only the... 10, maybe 12 mm axle resisting the torsion, but better than nothing. I'm guessing it's done this way because of space constrains (top tube and seat tube filling the space between the two rocker plates), but it is a cheap and effective way to tie the sides together as opposed to something like square axle ends and the like.

6/13/2022 5:24am Guess it confirms some of the rumors of the new normal fuel ex, 140r/150f travel, 65ish head angle, Though the last photo I'm not 100% certain if my eyes sees a pinch bolt?
