thanks for the video!
for all the european viewers, the fox 36 is actually 50% more expensive than the lyrik ultimate here so its an easy choice.

Great video.

I look forward to trying out the new Lyric. I’m currently riding the Lyric which came with the 2020 Hightower V2. Freaking love that fork. I am so impressed by how supple and smooth it feels. My other bike SC 5010 has a new fox factory 34 and even though they are different Stanchion diameters the Lyric is better in regards to smoothing out rough terrain.

I do think Fox Suspension looks better to the eye

I recently installed the RockShox Lyrik Ultimate Charger 3 RC2 29, I'm looking forward to the test drive :-)

I actually have 2023 fox factory geip2 orange, 160mm. I do have the rockshox c3 Lyrik Ultimate. The turn of for the Lyrik is that only have rebound not slow and high like the fox grip2. Fox factory grip2 has slow/high rebound and slow/high compression. For the money, I would not recommend rockshox as you get less external settings. I decided to go full fox factory on my Santa Cruz Hightower v3. Fox factory grip2 orange 160mm front and fox float factory X rear. Awesome to be honest!

very helpful. Looks like 2023 Lyrik is the better choice for most people (ie, don't do big hits, but just the usual rock gardens)

Looks really rad on that Hightower too !!

Also are you using torque caps on the lyrik it should improve stiffness

[nicholashines]

Man I am wanting to ditch my fox 34 for a pike. I know the newest model fox 34 is much stiffer than my 2021 model have you ridden the new 2023 Pike? Whatever I get is going to be the newest version of the two I just can’t find a comparison yet on YouTube

How does the fox 36 grip 2 compare to the lyrik charger 3 trail chatter is the butter cups in the lyrik better at trail chatter reduction?

[waldowsxxghostxx]

Is the lyrik ultimate good for jumps? Or is the fox 36 better for that? For my aggressive hardtail

So what s the best Fork for enduro/ am?

[oswaldoaguilar]

I personally dislike anything with the grip. 2. There are too many settings.

Ist 35 lyrik ultimate 2023 stiffer than fox 36?
