Details

Sure, RockShox's Lyrik RCT3 Dual Position Air can go up, but when the trail tilts down and things get hectic, this thing comes alive. With 130-160mm of travel, this do-it-all fork boasts their fluid Charger damping that smooths out big hits and provides consistent damping from the top to the bottom of the trail. It also lets you perfectly tune your low-speed compression for techy, square-edged courses to pumpy, jump-filled trails and everything in between. For more all-mountain prowess, the Dual Position Air spring lets you change the travel without changing its small-bump prowess via the simple flip of a switch. The Lyrik also utilizes RockShox's Maxle Ultimate thru-axle for supreme stiffness, surgical steering precision, and impressively low weight. And with SRAM's Boost hub spacing, you can run the Lyrik with a 29er or a 27.5+ wheel.

RockShox RCT3 Damper

For the ultimate in trail riding characteristics and performance, RockShox’s RCT3 has open (full-travel) and lockout settings, plus a threshold mode. This is a platform setting that stiffens the initial part of the stroke, helping increase pedaling efficiency. When you hit a bump, the damper opens and allows full travel, then returns to threshold mode once the trail smooths out.

RockShox's Charger Damper

RockShox’s Charger damper features a sealed rubber bladder that expands when the fork is compressed, so oil and air stay separate, virtually eliminating any chance of foaming or bubbles in the system. What does this mean? It means the fork rides higher in the travel, in the plushest part of the stroke, preserves the bike's geometry, and recovers from hits quickly, all while maintaining incredibly consistent damping, no matter how long the downhill.
