    ScreenHunter_10 Aug. 03 14.41.jpg Craig, take a look at this screen shot. it looks like the solo air comes in 180 per their website. unless i'm totally reading that wrong. i'd say go to their site yourself to verify, but their site is down for maintenance until tomorrow.

    Personally, i love my lyrik with the dh damper. Not enough time on the fox with fit damper to really say anything good or bad about it. Pre-fit, the dh damper is far superior. My fox 36 was plush but lacked midstroke and wallowed a bit.

    I just checked Rock Shox 2012 specs and 170 mm is max for the Lyric. The 170 Lyric would be a good match for a Delirium but I know I'd love another 10 mm ;)

    Craig - do you have the Mission Control DH damper on your totem or the standard Mission Control?


    DH damper = MUUUUUCH better than the standard.

    That being said. I love my totem. Friggen awesome fork.

    DH damper. I understand it works really well on the Lyric as well.

    Tink - Olympic can make your fork any color you want if it's that big a deal.

    I don't think you'll be disappointed with a lyrik on the knolly. A black fork on the frame your ordering will sweet.

    Does powdercoating a fork void warranty? I've thought about doing that.

    I don't know about the warranty, but during the last service on my float I took the lowers apart and painted them white to put on Blake's bike - they look great!

    um, no. i'm already complaining about a 5.5lb fork vs a 4.6 lb fork (or something like that. don't have my spreadsheet here). no way in hell am i getting a 7.25 lb fork!!!!!

    i'm not powder coating the 'heavy' fork to make it heavier!!!
