Very clean review 👌

Hi, I was interested in getting the direct mount stem then you have in the video. Did you get the RSX Direct stem 30mm or 20mm size? Thanks

Hi, great video. I just went to fit my Suron front wheel but there is a 1.2mm gap between the hub spacer and the Fox40 fork leg. So 0.6mm each side of hub. Brand new bike brand new forks. Did you have the same issue?

Nice video!!! how much of the tab do you have to grind off of the frame?

Great video! Thanks for the information. I put the 2021 Fox 40s on my server on and the brake caliper is not lining up even if I slide it all the way towards the rotor. Any suggestions? Even if I reamed out the oval mounting holes I don’t think it would line up properly with the rotor. It’s that far off. 😕

Most forks have specific adapters for the different brake Brands and rotor size. You changed forks so you’ll need the proper adapter.

Should fit hand guards in terrain like that itll make it look cooler & save your hands at same time

Thanks for all the vids! Quick question though, Is that fork 110x20 boost? I'm asking cause I picked up a Fox 40 and I only found out on installation that it's a 110x20 boost and my caliper does not align with the rotor. With the wheel mounted the caliper mounting holes are offset roughly 5-10mm from the post mount fastener holes. What's your thoughts on this predicament?

@emotobros

So to fix that you just have to buy a 5mm rotor spacer. That will offset it and line up perfect with the caliper 🤘🏽

ΛLỈΞИSИΞΛK ΛLỈΞИSИΞΛK you are somewhat right on that. The stock BMS allows 85amps continuous which will give a ~15% increase in power. However, you can BMS bypass it and run at max cell discharge (105ish amps). There are a couple problems with doing that though. 1 is that you are pushing cells to max discharge which can wear them out quicker, but also you lose the ability to balance your cells which we feel is very important. What we decided to do is completely replace the BMS with a high amp Bluetooth BMS from eBay. This will allow us to run 7000Watts and still balance our batteries.

The only one reason I would not change to the fox 40 is cause of weight. I think the weight of the sur Ron is gonna be to much weight for the 40. Most bicyclists who use that fork are light as are the bikes they go on are too. The Sur Ron is about 50 to 60 kgs stock and most bicycles that put on a 40 weigh about 20 to 60 pounds depending on the style of bike you ride.

@emotobros

What part of the Fox 40 do you not think can take the weight? It’s much sturdier than the DNM and is designed to take massive hits on downhill and free ride trails. The fox manual has suggested air pressure for rider weights up to 250 pounds but these forks are built with a pretty large factor of safety for reliability reasons so I would imagine unless your riding at red bull rampage and pushing 350 you won’t have any issues. The ability to ad air volume reducers is critical for tuning your air ramp at the end of the stroke for big hits. If your over 300 pounds and doing massive free ride hits then yeah, maybe reliability becomes a concern but then again a rider of that weight might be better suited on a full size dirt bike. Regardless though it’s miles ahead of the DNM as far as strength, rigidity and reliability goes. I would expect the head tube to break off at the welds from the frame or the rear suspension linkage to fail before the fox 40 would.

The manitou Dorado Works much better Thun the Fox40 on the surren. The Fox40 is designed for a System weight of Max 170Kg inclusive. Driver. You habe to perform a lot of Modifikations to the fox40 to works well on the Double of weight.

I like them, but can't justify buying a pair of forks that cost half as much as my ebike. They are amazing though

Ours were only about $850 after selling stock forks. Gotta be on the lookout for good deals!

@E-Moto Bros You guys should do a comparison between these at YZ 80 forks. I've seen a few different guys running them and considering you can basically get a full front end off of a YZ 80 for like $300 it seems like a better option. kzread.info/dash/bejne/p2lqrcuBYNTPprg.html This guys installation was kinda janky but the potential is there. Bike gains a bit of weight but I bet those forks work way better since they're designed for a heavier bike.

I could definitely see those being better performing assuming you get the correct valving. Only issue as you mentioned is weight, I’d think it’d really throw off the front to rear balance.

Stock rear shock too. I think the ride is great assuming you have it setup correctly. We have a video on that as well.

@@emotobros I've to install my 75 volt battery.. just need to update the suspension forks and rear spring..

I missed the part where you looked at rigidity. One of the most important things for MTB forks on a dirt bike. Would also really like to see a lot less riding on stock settings and more emphasis on demonstrating the range of adjustment available. This video didn't really tell me anything I couldn't find out in 30 seconds of googling, aside from some too dark, low quality assembly footage. Plays too much like advertising BS to me. I understand its hard to make good content. Thanks for taking the effort and initiative. Hopefully my feedback can help next time. Also what would you recommend for a heavy rider that goes hard and really really wants something better than FOX 40 for a 20kw sur ron without paying double for a brand name? A Chinese bike should have Chinese forks right? Its not really about cost. Its about value, and not supporting fox. I'd spend more for better.....

Think you also missed the part where this is just an installation and first impressions 😂. In all seriousness though, we are doing a full review of the fork but something like this needs to be thoroughly tested. Thanks for the feedback, this video was filmed on a GoPro prior to get our Full Frame which is why the footage was so bad. Our fox 40s were $850 after discounts and selling stock forks so I don’t know if you can beat that for the price. The problem with getting something “better” is that anything stiffer is for a moto bike and they completely ruin the balance of the bike. I think personally that the next best option after Fox is Marzocchi Bomber 58s. If you can find something better for the price let us know, we would love to check it out!

Do you remember how much you had to cut off

I could go measure but truthfully, it is very dependent on your spacer set-up so I'd be hesitant to give an exact number. If you had the same spacers though I'd be more than happy to go measure, let me know.

quite funny. out of the box using a 40. no setup on that trail and btw rich kid, the brake hose has to be installed inside and not outer ^^

Not sure where you're going to find one new for $1700 shipped without taking a chance on Chinese ebay. But yes, it's complete mental retardation to buy this bike in the first place. The only reason I even bothered with it was because it's electric and quiet. Otherwise, it's a MAJOR PIA. Nothing is documented well, so you're rummaging thru Facebook groups looking for info or posting questions on KZread. Then you toss more than half the bike into the junk pile and piss more $ and time away upgrading it. It's fun when it's done tho.

​@@lvlack420 Figured you were referencing direct purchase and just made a typo. I can see now you were just spelling it out for any other autistic 10 year olds that may be here, watching a technical video about a Fox 40 fork upgrade on a Sur Ron without knowing it's half the retail of the bike they already purchased. Makes complete sense, since only a complete tard would actually need to write out the math, listing 1700 twice instead of just saying "half".

@@CJMoto Well, I was being sarcastic in an attempt at humor, but coming from a youtube channel devoted to a vehicle, let's see where you're at after a year. Without upgrades, you're not going to be able to generate enough content at your current pace, so I expect you'll eventually toss everything original except the motor and frame. Don't forget, you've already replaced your beloved DNM forks with one of the single most expensive single components. I knew a guy like you when I had my Camaro that had a YT channel. He was originally bent on keeping it stock...a year later, we both had 1k hp cars. edit - just want to add, to upgrade is not a bad thing. It's great to make a fun power toy you're own :)
