Prototype ISO Tuned Boxxer WC Works
- Thread starter Trekrules
- Start date
What's the service interval?
Looks like standard seals.
Good to see another internals offer, not sure why you'd pick the Boxxer chassis over a 888, especially if you have some funky air spring in it.
Polished lowers look cool.

More people own boxxers, easier to get them cheap.
Its smooth for a boxxer, as far as I understood there were no internal changes IE parts swapping maybe shims etc possibly a bleed hole but same boxxer internals. Theres something coming via the axle thats being looked into... I will give drake credit it did feel good, and the polish job was clean....
This is NOT a cart like avalanche, elka, boss, cr1...
So its a tune like push? Please explain.
From what I gathered yes and no. Seems there some slight modifications to it and a part that's going to reduce weight a smidge . For a tune it felt good I didn't get to ride it down because cameron is 150-160 lbs and with a rear air shock and it dialed for his weight the rear shock would have had an issue... did pop around and chris rode it around a little...
Ill see if I can clarify a little more In a bit....
i dig the polish job.
hard to knock the avy option...the one thing I want the most for my boxxer is less service.

Its not on par with the avy cart. It feels good but not on the same page.... it will require maintenance and it still lacks mid speed shims as well as hydraulic bottom out unless the added it which I don't believ to be the case....
Don't know tons about it but I do know the polish job is all marred up cameronwent over the bars in the rocks.....
Werd.
As quirky as Craig is he did hit a homerun with the cart.
The upkeep now is mostly keeping on top of spring side lube and\or air seal lube for w/c.
yeah...I have to see how my budget/bonus/tax refund goes this year and whether I'll have any cash to throw at my bike. I need to have my rear shock tuned and would love an avy cart to go with...the boxxer is pretty decent; I like the chassis but I'm not in love with the damping or seals...guess I'll deal.
He was seeded behind me at the races, that bike is crazy, crazy light.
Light bikes are so 2008.
What's up guys....
I'm the guy who got to race the ISO works fork last weekend at Fontana. I was super stoked to take it for a spin, unfortunatly I only had for the day since it has already sold. None the less I was very impressed with it's performance and have one on order...
I ride a 2010 Boxxer WC with the full Avy upgrades and will admit that this fork feels just as good if not better out of the box. I spent saturday practicing on my fork and then rode the ISO fork for the race so I got to ride them back to back. My race run went to **** with the wind, but there's no doubt that fork felt faster and insprired confidence where my fork didn't.
Here's the basic info on the ISO Works fork(s):
Chassis: Boxxer, 40, or 888
Hardware: Ti
Internals: Stock Dampers, modified, custom tuned per order.
Tuning: ISO-Stage 3
Color options: Polished, or powder coated upper/lower crowns and lower legs.
Decals: Custom ISO, Black, White, or Blue
Service: 2 years service included with purchase.
Warranty: Full manufactures warranty applies.
Cost: All this for about the retail cost of the stock untuned fork...

so its just a re-shim and a shine job?
...in addtion to the custom tunning and internal mods you also get: Ti hardeware, choice of color or polished chassis, a full factory warranty, and 2 years service/tunning all for about the retail cost of the fork. Being a Dh racer, the free service alone sold me on this fork.
Some people will opt for an off the shelf Works fork like what ISO is offereing for slightly more than the retail cost...and some will pay retail, and then upwards of $300-500 to tune it and still end up with a fork that looks just like every other stock fork out there.
Also if you're local to So cal you can arrange to demo the fork and try it out before you buy...

whats included in the 2 year service?
would painting or polishing it void the warranty like it would on a frame?
