Hi,
My friend is doing a project on suspension bike design and needs to find the dimensions of the Fox 40's spring (internal/external diameter, length and approxiamte coild spacing).
Does anyone know the exact materials used for the different parts of the fork?
Since i don't have a Fox...
Been looking through pictures from the WC at Mont Saint Anne and saw this:

Many riders including Steve Peat and Sam Hill are running these red Boxxers. Does anyone know anything about them? Are they are different?
It appears I could be using a spring which is too stiff for my weigh using a Double Barrel. Although this feels perfect for most other shocks (DHX,Roco,5th etc), apparently the CC works differently and controls the end stroke compression itself not the spring. Which in turn means a lighter...
my compression is set to the recommended settings issued by cane creek. As was the rebound. Compression wise this felt fine, just the rebound was insanely fast, so i ended up slowing it down to fully slow and this still is really fast. Contacted Malcolm so hopefully things will get sorted out...
I weigh 190lbs and use a 550 spring on a 2006 V10. I started off with the stock settings, but the backend was bucking around. Compared to the range of my DHX the cane creek doesnt go any where near as slow as it.
just seems like the rebound range doesnt go slow enough for me. I have heard that CC tune the shock differently to most. I cant seem to get the rebound to feel slow, as thats how it like it.
Hi,
I finally got my double barrel up and running and iam finding that it excells on the rough, i love it, but on the corners iam finding the backend is breaking away where it didnt used to on the DHX. In the corners it seems really active (to the point where iam losing grip). Usually on...
I got a Double Barrel a few months ago and managed to bend the shock bolt so bad it wouldnt come out of the mount kit (the spherical bearing), so I had to hit the bearing out. Basically now I dont have one of the bearings so cant use the shock. I was looking at getting another one and a new...
I have just cracked my Morewood Izimu just before a race this weekend, so I borrowed a 2004 V10 purely for the race, I'm loving the way this bike rides but on the more tight/technical sections of the track iam finding it too long and heavy for me. So now looking to get a new bike.
Does anyone...
Right, since kevin recommended a 500 spring I have been out on the bike quite alot trying it out. The spring feels perfect however the shock still seems to wallow midstroke and speed up at the end of a run. Due to this Iam looking to try another shock; double barrel or roco. Due to the high...
I have had the thing for about 6weeks, tried every different setup combination and it doesnt seem much better. I like the rebound pretty slow and when i run the DHX like this it seems to spike. I have even taken it to Tim Flooks who tunes for people like Steve Peat etc and he thinks i have it...
the bottom out adjuster is wound nearly full out. The shock seems to spike alot and not use full travel despite me having the correct spring. And iam not running huge amounts of air in the boost valve (130psi)
