1/23/2018 2:50pm I think the lack of dual clamp forks is mostly due to turning radius in a trail bike application. I like the idea for packaging, but understand the limitations of maneuverability.

1/23/2018 2:47pm The FOX FIT RC2 system is more refined than the Charger in the fact that the FOX has a finer resolution to the external adjustment range. That being said, they're both very good.

1/23/2018 2:45pm 150lbs over seems excessive. I'm assuming that we're not talking about an ELEVENSIX here as I'm not aware of any application where a customer has had to do this. What's the bike and your rider weight?

1/23/2018 2:43pm It's a little bit of all of them.

1/23/2018 12:57pm Awesome! I've been rocking a Patrol for a while as well. It is true that we're having a noise issue in the 170mm configuration. 140-160mm kits are all good, but the extra length in the 170 causes a slapping noise against the inner stanchion that isn't acceptable with some of the rates. We're working aggressively to resolve the issue and...

1/23/2018 12:27pm -Yikes....Worst suspension product? Not sure on that one. That's not an award we want! -I've never had an ALPS on the dyno so I wouldn't have an answer, not to mention we'd have to define the test. -Fully rigid bikes rate the highest in this catagory. -I don't remember anyone in our planning meetings saying it was going to be...

1/23/2018 12:17pm Thanks....we look forward to getting your new Nomad sorted for you! This question came up in an earlier post as well regarding the price point. As I mentioned, we would have to make significant changes(compromises) to our product and process to lower the price. We're very proud, and completely committed to of our "Made Here" and "Performance First" values.

1/23/2018 11:59am You kind of nailed it. Electronic suspension is surely on the rise and will be something more commonly seen on showroom floors very soon and a focus of future development. For us, we're focused more on keeping the wires away from our products and refining spring and damping systems that are lighter weight, refined more for each application, and putting...

1/23/2018 11:47am It has to do with the timing of the Air Bump Stop engagement with the lower rod. With our ACS3 kit you have to have a matching lower rod and upper assembly to make it work. We just haven't worked on the 26" wheel packaging to be honest so I'm not sure what the options would be.

1/23/2018 11:40am If I couldn't ride PUSH products? Wow....I would probably just take up golf or something....

1/23/2018 11:38am Thank you very much. To be honest, we don't really have any experience with the new Rhythm fork so I wouldn't be the best person to ask. Sorry I couldn't be of more help on that one.

1/23/2018 11:32am For starters, we use different Rod Bumpers that vary in density and length to achieve a progressive spring characteristic. We also house the bumper in a "cup" design which allows us another range of tuning the progression. The combination is selected based on the frames leverage characteristic. In the case of the Yeti's we use a longer more progressive bumper...

1/23/2018 11:04am It sometimes can be. While sag certainly is useful in establishing a baseline spring setting it too shouldn't be used as a specific guideline. More of a good reference as their is no right or wrong.

1/23/2018 11:02am I won't cringe....we're really glad riders are so excited to get their hands on the new shock. I can tell you that it won't be too long now and that it is in the production phase here at PUSH. I would expect to see update "sneak peeks" on our social channels very soon.

1/23/2018 11:00am 1. We have been doing that and have an update to our website coming soon to automate that service request. 2. Certainly possible, although we don't have plans at the moment. 3. Possibly, but no plans at the moment. IF you have the right tools, the FIT dampers are actually quite smooth to work with. 4. No. We would have...

1/23/2018 10:47am Awesome....glad to hear you're rocking a couple of our ACS3 kits! Modern forks have very tight packaging so being able to fit a long enough spring to achieve 180mm of travel while offering enough rates hasn't been possible unfortunately.

1/23/2018 10:43am I like the idea of a consumer based DAQ tuning device, but would like one that isn't limited to just air suspension. We don't have a lot of experience with the ShocWiz as we're coil guys. We've had a look at some alternate systems that have some potential so we'll see.

1/23/2018 10:40am Stoked you like that product! At the time that was a very cool product! I don't believe that damper would transfer due to changes in the FOX upper assemblies on the newer forks using a different thread pitch.
