Hey, thanks! Thinking about retiring

you should try the ultimate lyrik with the buttercups. This is a gamechanger. Never had a fork as comfortable through on rough terrain. I'm coming from a 36 factory '23 and rockshox just won me over with this masterpiece of fork. Regarding services: Rockshox has really nice instructions on how to service your suspension. You can't service your float x at your regular workshop at home. Not a gamechanger, but worth to mention when talking about serviceability.

@@hias_k Yes I have tried both extensively (old ultimate without BC and new ultimate with BC). I honestly don't notice it, although I like the 2.1 damper better and at 180+mm I think the new air shaft is too progressive. It could also be the crappy MOCO damper you can feel in the non-ultimate giving your arms a hard time (?). Your tires should absorb a lot more chatter than the BCs do. That's their job.

Have you tried leeting more air out the lyrik and adding compression instead to make it sit high in its travel? I have a chrager 3 Pike ultimate and i could get it to track the roots without having arm pump. Waht I like in comparisson to the charger 2.1 is the it sits higher in its travel and does not go up and down this much.

Hey Otter have a suggestion for you for a video as I asked GMBN they did make a video but really didn't cover the topic ... I have a Megatower 2 with a Rockshox select+(absolutely gross standard shock for an enduro monster) I have a 38 Grip 2 on the front but I'm really struggling what class of Air shock to go - DH/Enduro class(X2/Vivid) or 'Aggressive' all mountain/Enduro class(Float X/Super deluxe Ultimate) I do alot of pedalling in my rides average 20-25km/500-600m (12.5-15.5mile/1640-1970feet) hit some gnarly rocky DH with bits of flow and jumps, also techy rocky climbs and long fire road climbs - really do it all. Is the heavier more sluggish DH class shock with all the adjustments or lighter slightly more active all mountain/enduro with LSC a better option... Really stuck in the middle here of which way I should go!

The new Super Deluxe Ultimate is 1.25% better than the previous model, NO brainer to go Fox if you have a 38 hanging out the front and like it. Vivid is good shock, I compared it to X2. I did a full day Float X vs X2 linked video here. Float X can hang anywhere and will jump better and pedal better, but with your 165 rear travel and it being a VPP X2 all day. Santa Cruz bikes pedal like a hardtail and need the extra plushness, I would go Coil on the Santa Cruz in fact. When going coil no need to be picky Rockshox is fine, it slows that long travel down in the chunk, less moving parts more reliable.

Awesome review bro! It's, a shame ear that about the new RS super deluxe ultimate shock because I just bought it :(. I been riding coils for the last 2 years (150_160 rear travel ) and now I want to go back to air . My next custom bike it's 155mm rear and 170 front and after seeing this video I want to sent it back. I riding hard most of the time speed lines , local steeps and technicals trails , drops and in summer bikepark ones per week . I never ride a fox fork but I had the bomber Z1 160mm I really like it was very soft the problem was sinking a lot when I braked anyway it's a good fork. After the marzocchi I been using only RS : Judy, 35,, revelation, pike, lyrik select ,domain and for the last 2 year the lyrik ultimate 2021 and I really like it the small bumps sensitivity and the recovery after hits some jumps. Regarding rear suspension a had fox DPS DPX 2(I really love for the climb position) float X elite, float X performance I never want the X2 performance for usual problems. The difference with coil for me it's the maintenance, it's cheaper than the air , on tech the feedback on rockgardens and roots. Coming from a mechanic I really appreciate this video In your opinion What shock do you recommend me ? Thanks man Cheers

Regarding the fork as I told you it's the previous lyrik 21 charger 2 , what do you think about marzocchi Cr coii Shock. Do you know if the grip regulation works the same as the fork I mean when you start to close the compresión became hard almost close . I have a electric bike merida E one sixty 2022, specialized status 160 , and now I just bought the frameset of the banshee titan ( I was between the transition spire or the titan ) . Anyway I'm still on time to return the shock if I change my mind it,s so bad? Or it's a matter of set up . Thanks bro !

I guess it comes down to personal preference. I tried a 36 rhythm and it was either too plush or too harsh, and no mid stroke support. I found that even my old Yari felt better to me. The super deluxe vs float X is a different story. I don't really see any difference between those two when I ride them. I don't really jump, and I'm not a great rider, and don't care about brands but I'm massively disappointed with the fox fork.

DPX 2 had maximum tokens. had to run the shock at 20% SAG. 25-30 was soft, but went through the mid stroke way to easy, I always assumed a better compression tune was needed.

i think that too, i hade the possibility tri try both a fox 36 factory and a lyrik select plus, and i have the new lyrik ultimate on my personal bike. i think that you can compare a 36 factory to a lyrik ultimate, not a select plus... but at the end of the day rockshox is better
