there goes the end of the custom and matching sticker craze

I like the graphics leading onto the stanchions...
seems to be using the same maxle system, that alone would put me off

Im personally think that they look great and it looks like they will have a direct stem included
i prefer the old look.
lthumbsdown:
Looks like a new brake mount.
So if these are the 09's, what is the 09 boxxer team with the red lower? An 08.5?
Its an "oh $hit, our new forks are not ready yet, hand me some red paint" model.
I really don't like the look of them. I like the 35mm but the graphics are full retard.
The lowers look just like the lyrik so I am guessing that is the base.
Plus they are taking away a huge part of my business making custom decals. Don't they realize that.:biggrin:

I'm diggin' em. Anyone else notice that the lowers taper in diameter about halfway down?
I wonder how many compression cyles til it just reads 'XER'
They don't taper, it is just a small bulge, can't remember what part is right there.
its a bulge to accomodate the bushings, same as the Lyrik and Totem.
I hate this! I really hate this!
Graphics are FAIL. I think they should have done those blackbox graphics the team riders use, looks way better.
I think i see my new fork... XD
Gotcha. I still like 'em. Want... to... try...
will a 3 inch Gazzalodi fit?
Any information on the damping and its adjustably?
I most likely will just keep riding my old setup next year and wait and see what happens.

I sure hope it fairs better than the last couple of first year Rockshox products.....
The Lyric and Totem were warranty nightmares. A local suspension tuner figures they ran out of Locktite when assembling the Vivids. Most of his Vivid work is putting them back together properly because they just "come apart"

Thanks for the info. Any word on when they will be available. I have wanted one ever since I saw the Blackbox version in person.
Tada!
Wow that sounds really really good. Now I want one.
I don't like the look either. The graphics look too boring/random, compared to the simple and clean ones of the last. But, they probably ride well.

They do not look bad actually. The biggest pain is going to be keeping the stanchion graphics aligned every time I remove the fork.
And the plastic internals.

Who cares what they look like as long as they perform well.
Looks are everything! Will perfectly tuned suspension really help anything? Of course not. Only cool looking graphics will take that 10 seconds off your run!
