Recently purchased an Evil Following with this shock and had been unable to find anything on the Rock Shox site that explained what the blue lever did. Thank you.

This video is beautifully technical. But, to be honest, I've watched it 4 times over the last few weeks while I learn more about suspension. It finally makes some sense after weeks of research on the jargon.

Just picked up a trek top fuel with this type of shock think I understand what you mean by damping in plus or minus set up position. Would appreciate a little bit more definition of the term damping. Did you find the rebound control to be a little difficult to turn in such a tight position.

The Rockshox documentation for this shock is terrible. THANK YOU Chris Mandell for a clear explanation of the various adjustments on this shock! I just swapped out my SID Luxe Ultimate with the Deluxe Ultimate and I'm looking forward to riding with it.

so - 1st ride, Giant Reign, with Super deluxe ultimate 2021 shock - wow cant find the words. i am riding enduro mainly and my old shock was Deluxe+. Even after installing MegNeg on Deluxe+ the rear was dead, traction was non existent and wheel bounced like crazy - i tried to combat it will lower tire pressure but that was not helpful. After research i went for 2021 and installed MegNeg. I felt slow as the rear end was on the trail and instead of skidding (ever breaking w my old shock) i could just modulate the speed - rear perfectly planted, also same for peddling uphill - tons of traction. I have also upgraded my Yari to Charger 2.1 - bike feels like a new steed and just safer overall.

Just bought a new bike and can’t understand which shock I have. Bike specification says Deluxe Ultimate RLR, but I can’t have a Lockout. By the serial number it seems to be a Threshold shock but I can’t be sure. Can you help?

Sorry a bit off topic, but I'm looking high and low for what that lever does on my Rockshox Deluxe Select Plus shock. If it is meant to be a compression adjuster, or if it is just meant to be either up or down (lock-out/not locked lever). Thanks!

It's a lockout
@mircea50139 ай бұрын
@@mtbmagazine so... the deluxe select+ has a lockout? The ultimate doesn't have a lockout? I'm confused If so, does it mean that the select+ is actually better in terms of climbing, while the ultimate is better for more aggressive downhill?

Shocks aren't measured in travel like forks are since the linkage dictates that. You will need to get this shock in the same stroke length and eye-to-eye as your existing shock or as close as possible.

I just got this exact shock for my bike, need a baseline for set up, but I can’t find it anywhere. Someone have a link?

Ghostrider304 count how many clicks there are on your compression/ rebound and then set them both half.

Start with middle on everything and sag set up, thats your baseline.

Why do so many bikes come with Fox in the rear? It seems like no manufacturers like Rockshox. Is Fox just that much better at rear shocks?
@mtbmagazine4 жыл бұрын
There was a period of time when Fox had better rear shocks (generally speaking), but RS has been catching up lately. The opposite happened to the forks, when RS presented the Pike.

Can the Rockshox Deluxe Ultimate be used on an E-Bike? I ask because the Rockshox website says, regarding the Ultimate model: "A perfect match for the current crop of ultra-lightweight and capable dream bikes". My E-Bike weighs 52 lbs - so not "ultra-lightweght". In other words, is the Rockshox Deluxe Ultimate only for ultra-lightweight bikes?
@mtbmagazine5 жыл бұрын
it's more a xc/trail shock, not intended for enduro. Probably not the best choice for ebikes either
@virkelie25 жыл бұрын
@@mtbmagazine Thanks so much for answering! When you say "probably not the best choice for e-bikes either" - is it because the shock is not built strong enough for e-bikes?

Can I put the new 2wt oil in a 2019 superdeluxe r? (in the ifp system, not in the air can)
@Andrea-qg5yk3 жыл бұрын
you can put any oil in any shock. I don't know what weight the stock oil has but I'm assuming it's higher than 2wt and if you find it overdamped you can of course use a lighter oil.
