altitude will go full santa cruz anyway.

Just trying something here.... That Transition Sentinel sure is a cool looking bike, curious to see how much it resembles my old Patrol!

That is the WP version of the new Onyx 38 damper with the Cone Valve. DVO NZ reached out after I commented on it as it turns out they had been testing it for a few months already. I've had it all in bits and will run it on the Dyno tomorrow but so far- -Yes it is an actual Cone Valve design, but on the base valve instead of the mid valve. This will change its effect somewhat, since there is much less oil flow at the base valve -Overall construction of the base valve is really nice, the...

What's so special about this? Shimano had single-lever trigger shifters in the 90s, just with a Y-shaped paddle.

They must still have TONNES of right legs on a shelf somewhere after only selling the left ones for years

Because the Lefty has three (used to be four) flat surfaces with needle bearings between them inside the housing. Which prevent rotation of the stanchion. Which is not the case with dual legged upside down forks. USD forks are flexy because they don't have the bridge connecting the lowers that standard bike forks have. Take a standard MTB fork, cut away the bridge and it will be a noodle. Back to rumors.

they're just having AI do the renderings now. at least the wheels are round.

The technology needed to digitally render valve stems is still decades away.

Edit your post, it got broken a bit, at first glance it looks like you're posting pictures of the current/old demo saying it's the proto one

Fox/rs would have their own reasons for not developing a usd fork (including tooling/development investment). Fox actually developed a usd dh fork at one point, pretty sure minarr and maybe gee were testing it? Apparently great in straight line, not so much in hard cornering and the weight increase required was beyond what they were willing to sell. I did my thesis on the torsional flex in usd forks, built a jig to actually get some data on them too. While it wasonly a static (not dynamic) test, it did allow me to work out that a large degree of...

Or they're trying to get rid of them before the new MZ 38 lands as it'll surely be cheaper.

Maybe the first to have the LMT damper (tho not sure if it's a damper or a tune...)?

Huge discounts on Fox 38s here in Australia, better than half price in some cases. Are they simply overstocked or is there a new 38 coming?

https://www.pinkbike.com/news/throwback-thursday-foxs-upside-down-proto… Gee rode it in 2011 and based off the article, it was Gwin who gave it a shot. Pretty sure the Syndicate was still on Sram kit back in 2011 when this proto was current. Anywho as for USD vs. non-USD, i'll just leave this here again: https://www.vitalmtb.com/forums/The-Hub,2/How-stiff-are-dual-crown-fork…

Might not have to wait to much longer, this was posted today from Darren.

Let’s just wait for the Push fork to be released and find out how they worked out rigidity.

wasn't the hub one of the first in boost 15x110 size with torque caps to negate the "noodly" feeling?
