Default 2005 Fox TALAS 36 RC2 - Low miles, excellent condition

$525

Fox TALAS RC2
  • Purchased new in April 2006 (5 months old)
  • Ridden 2-3 times a week since then for an hour or two each ride
  • Great condition, very few small scratches on lowers, stanchions are perfect with no scratches, upper crown in excellent condition, too
  • RC2 has Rebound, High Speed Compression, and Low Speed Compression
  • Travel adjust from 110-150mm
  • AC ~535mm
  • One weird thing: Rebound levers + side slows down rebound and - speeds up rebound. Don't know if that's normal for Fox stuff. Seems like + should speed up rebound and - should slow down rebound but what do I know
  • I love this fork. It's stiff, plush, and relatively light. I'm selling because I'm changing frames and this fork is too much for the new frame - gotta finance the new purchases!
  • Steerer tube is cut to a hair under 7.75"
  • Feel free to stop by and check it out (Irvine or Aliso)
  • PayPal preferred (Credit Cards add 3%)
  • Cash okay if local pick up
  • UPS shipping is extra (at cost, though - no mark up)
  • Contact me via: PM, phone 714~366~8463, or email scruffylooking at hotmail dot com

Yes + equals more rebound dampening which equals slower rebound, so that is normal. Good luck with the sale

Funny, I swear my old Float 130 was the opposite where the + meant faster rebound but I'm likely wrong because I don't read well... or so my wife tells me.

Thanks TR!

Anyways, someone buy my fork.

On my '04 TALAS, + speeds up rebound and - slows it down

Mysteriouser and mysteriouser.

Well, for the record, the rebound adjust does work. When you set it to slow, it's big hit slow. When you set it to fast, it's springy. And everything in between is kosher.
