This is my recommended junk list to make videos and be a suspension nerd

I wonder if you did this test with the Zeb with the 3.1 damper. Allegedly they are more supple and wider range.

[paul.p.smellthetruth]

If you want better small bump sensitivity but do not want to loose the Support, gibt the onyx the 2.5 damping oil but exchange 1 compression shim for a thicker one or add some thinner ones. I think this would get you maxximum performance. Support plus sensitivity.

I like their damping Structure. The compressable bladder cannot blow, bleeding is easy as with a ifp but you still have the low friction of a bladder. This it is a great reliable system.

Just get a mezzer pro.
Stiffness "only between zeb and lyrik" but more performance out of the box than float 38 or zeb, only 2080 gramm for 180mm 29er fork, hbo, and irt (double positive chamber) for outstanding Support while rivalising the zeb charger3 in sensitivity. The pm is 180 mm, thus you can easily adjust if you want a 200mm or 203mm disc. Max is 220mm.
Love that fork. Only one I kept for years besides the intend flash, which I will also keep for many years. Two best forks out of the box, especcially when looking at weight/stiffness/performance ratio.
If this not enough you can easily shim and bleed it at home and there are some very good aftermarket tuning options as well. Very highly recommend

Excellent review, I am cosnidering this fork to replace my lyrik ult, The x fusion releases the new 38 fork and also formula has the belva, I hope that you could this two someday alsi. Love how you review suspensions. 🤘

I know this dude he's my wife's boyfriend, he also steals all my KOMs!!!

[LaurentiusTriarius]

My boxxer RC is a bit less than 6lbs. Wonder if formula's dual crown will catch on with the 38 people, at 5 lbs+ why not.

I wish you did a video on how to adjust a dvo diamond d1 (35mm) with the ott. That’s what I have in my bike

[paul.p.smellthetruth]

No, best Service is intend, fast friendly, listening to special requests, cheap spare parts. Besides the New airspring is oretty dope. You can travel it by just Rotation the fork leg wirh Connecticut pump. 1mm per Rotation. 190-160 at the Flash, 180-150mm at the edge

Just got my 38 back from DVO after what i believe was bind, hopefully its all good now.

Really cool down to earth vid mate. Got a question about front suspension if yoh could cast some light on it. I'm looking at upgrading my 130mm rl silver forks to something bigger, 160mm to 190mm either zebs or fox 36. Keep hearing that you should only go 10 to 20 mm about whats standard on the bike because it can change the geometry and put stress on the frame. Would using an angleset headset and changing the offset counter this or will they run fine just putting them on or will the bike explode as people seem to think? I'm riding a calibre bossnut v2.
Cheers dude

I’ve been using x fusion forks and shocks . Been happy with them . Easy to setup nice and plush

[beno]

What settings for your weight did you end up with?

[pernyberg]

What part of the geometry is bad with the Rail that is much better on the Kenevo?

[juanhidalgo]

No respect for e bikes! I rather die 😊

[MrFuckinlogin]

Im very curious your opinion about Manitou mezzer pro.
