I don't think this was already mentioned yet. Just for fun, I emailed them asking how much a rebuild is and it took Roger 20 minutes to respond!

Naw, website was more important.

still...they updated the skeleton, but I don't think there is any new content?

i noticed that too, almost everything is the same

 

[ChrisRobin]

At least it's encouraging knowing that they're moving ahead... How old was that previous website? A couple years??? I wonder if small manufacturers like Romic ever look at forums like Ridemonkey to see what people are saying and make changes accordingly. I wouldn't be surprised since there's been a lot of negative talk about their shocks lately. I might be wrong...

There is one error I can see.

The "s" on the button that says "products"...

I can't resist, I must say that the website "blows"...

















Ok, it really doesn't "blow"...but you know I just couldn't resist..

they should have a lifetime calculator or something. You put in your leverage ratio, riding style, and weight, and it tells you how long the shock will last before it spills its oil

What in the world for... it would be permanently stuck on 12.5 minutes!

jm...i know this is off topic but what is climb it control exactly SUPPOSED to do? its on one of my psylos and the mechanic at the bike shop said it was supposed to lock the fork down in its travel (like zoke's eta or ecc or whatever it is). but i thought it was just a compression adjustment/lock out. which is it?



sorry for the hijakc. i didnt think it was worth a new thread.

well, i am not familier with that fork makers travel gimmick I'm familier with the wind-down systems, ETA, ECC, and full lock outs.

To my knowledge, marzocchi is the only one that has ECC lock-down, and ETA where it is not really a travel change, but a lock-down with 30mm of travel left over or whatever. Other fork makers usually either have adjustable travel, or some sort of lockout that works fully extended...

Were you looking at my avatar again!?? I made most of those up, check out the pike

ahh yes i was and it made me think of my fork . its a rs psylo sl 2003. the u-turn is travel adj. the climb-it control i guess is a compression adjustment and it also locks out the fork at full travel
