What is RL in RockShox?

RL= Rebound and lockout (really a low-speed compression) adjustment. RLT= rebound, ‘lockout’ and threshold (opens up the damper on big hits if the low-speed comp is closed).

Are RockShox air shocks?

Rockshox says that being able to split the compression loads allow them to refine the feel of the shock creating a more sensitive shock in the initial stroke making it feel more supple. In addition to this, the Super Deluxe range is available as an air shock or a coil shock, both in a range of specifications.

What is better pike or Lyrik?

Lyrik features the same 35mm chassis that Pike does, but is better because it uses the Rapid Recovery system that keeps the front wheel stable in dirt tracks. Pike’s chassis is notably designed to maximize on weight saving and increase in stiffness.

Is air fork or coil fork better?

If you ride cross country, stick with air forks – they are easier to use, and provide good performance across all but the extremes. If your bike takes some big hits and impacts, use a coil fork – they are stronger and you cannot beat the coil setup for bigger hits.

Which is better coil or air?

If we were to evaluate both only on performance, a coil shock is superior. That’s because an air-spring shock requires tight seals to capture pressurized air. A coil, however, operates without seals because it doesn’t have to hold air under high pressure. And it’s not just the damper that’s affected by heat.

Why is Fox 38?

Fox launched the 38 in April 2020 as a burlier alternative to the long-standing 36, which is now confined to 150 and 160mm travel, while the 38 takes over from 160 to 180mm. Fox claims the 38 is 31 per cent stiffer laterally, 17 per cent stiffer fore/aft and 38 per cent torsionally stiffer than the 2021 Fox 36.

What’s the difference between RockShox RS-1 and RS-2?

The RS-1 name harks back to the fork that started it all for RockShox but it’s a very different animal to that early fork. It uses an upside-down design, where the slider stanchions are at the bottom of the fork, rather than the top.
