With design and manufacturing experience in the bicycle, aerospace, automotive, and water sports industries, Risse Racing Technology now offers service and tuning on most brands of shocks and forks.ġ. We now offer suspension service and tuning of most brands of forks and shocks. sorry for the rant.Risse Racing - Mountain Bike Suspension Service. there are plenty of cheaper options out there for your confusing budget that somehow managed to include such a high performing fork. if you don't want it to perform at its' best. you're already spending a lot of money on a fancy dancy fork. if you're worried about having to make a new wheel because your current one won't adapt. you can still build up a very strong wheel with any of the optinos availible today. strength wise, that will do many more wonders in terms of stiffness. and there's already the option for lower 1.5. if it was using a 20mm, the fork would be over-stressed in other areas, requiring more strength in the fork in other areas to compensate, obviously making it heavier. most likely the whole fork was built to flex around the strength of the 15mm.

just consider it another way for us bike fanatiks to break away from the casual crowd with something new and special! heck, i don't know if this has ever talked about or covered the flex that the 15mm gives over the 20mm. because they've been stated time and time again. 9mm quick releases have been around for too long for there to be no ways to improve upon it.

There is also an RL model and RL stands for Rebound and lockout.ġ5mm will be accepted over time just as any standard in the bike market has. Meaning you can now finely tune how "locked out" your fork feels when the adjustment is set up. The black knob in the middle is referred to as lockout threshold - this is an internal adjustment that Fox designed that allows you to tune the lock out pressure on your fork. Our fork was also labeled with RLC - Rebound, Lockout and Compression. Fox has also re-designed the bladder system in the FIT cartridge, providing the lowest friction rating for sealed dampers. Fox has relocated the rebound adjustment to the bottom of the FIT cartridge to make space for the Talas travel adjustment, and the lock out/compression adjustments which are now found on the top of the right leg crown. More traction generally means more control, and better performance as well. Some of the changes Fox made to the FIT system include making it lighter, an even wider low speed compression range, and a finely tuned high speed compression damping circuit designed to provide superior traction. FIT was originally designed for downhill racing applications, however Fox has adapted it into some of their single crown forks for 2010. The Talas 32 RLC also features Fox's FIT system, which is Fox's answer to a high end damper system.
