Glad I went through this thread...was looking to either get a zeb or 38 this week....was looking at both and getting google-U versed in em...this is more what I was looking for as far as thoughts..

Absolutely love the Zeb, I completely forget about it, and rarely ever wonder if it could be improved. It just ‘dissapears’ , which is what great products do. Have about 100-130 hours on it, probably time for an oil refresh, but it certainly doesn’t feel any different than new.

I like my Zeb as well. I pretty much took it out of the box, put it on the bike and went riding. Have really only fiddled with air pressure a bit.

New generation ZEB? looks like new lowers with air pressure release buttons like on the FOX 38.

I really gotta stop riding mine and check it even has oil in the lowers. I put it on, played with a few clickers and just forgot about it. It just disappears under me - I really like it.

Anyone here try applying some wicking grade loctite 290 to their steerer/crown interface to try to resolve creaking? An online search seems to suggest that others have done this with varying degrees of success. Seems like a low $$ option to try vs. new uppers.

I did this on a brand new set of uppers when I had my Helm after having to use warranty twice in 6 months for the creak. Seemed to help prevent creak in that case for the time I had it.

Gee whiz bang willikers, beave, it lights up!
I hope it works better than the K2 ‘piezo’ nonsense.
(I am sure it does)
I certainly hope it defaults to ‘override’ mode if that thing snaps off on a rock.

That looks nice and Zesty.

Anyone know what the go is with the new silver seal head upgrade kits showing up for the Zebs?

The technology has been well vetted when applied to cars. I'd say it would open up a lot of opportunities for tuning, but since the average dentist who will buy this couldn't set up a 3 brick lego kit, it will either just be a few canned tunes or it will get horrible results with the general public.

Position sensitive damping would be cool, as would built in data aquisition.

One step closer the ‘the singularity’?

do we really think sram would change the lower castings on a fork thats barely been on the market a year to add air bleed ports?

 

[rideit]

They are TURBO buttons.

Steel safe change...

 

[jonKranked]

Steel safe change...

maybe for the button mount, but not the hole into the lowers. secondary op post casting?

 

[StiHacka]

They are TURBO buttons.

And just like turbos, they are great at leaking oil, too.

As in when stuff gets so expensive only Zuckerberg and Bezos will be able to afford them?

They are TURBO buttons.

I believe the right term is Freedum Nipples™.
