Newly Released Suspension & Components General

What's the feedback on the Formula Mod coil shock? Everything I've seen has been pretty positive but we still just see RS and Fox on 90% of bikes here. I'm planning to get my son a Tyee for Christmas and I like the CTS idea, plus they are cheap AF when specced from Propain.

I think @gippyz has one and rates it highly?

Yeah, his (God I hope that's the correct pronoun) posts are pretty complimentary about it.

[Engages Karen mode] OMG did you just force your religious beliefs on their gender!?!?!?!?! I've never been so offended!!!

Still running it on my Rune and love it. Not going back to my X2 for sure.

The only negative I have is that the Rune's frame design makes it hard to reach the rebound dial, and that it can be very stiff. Flat head screwdriver helps somewhat.

Hambo’d the shock size of the Dreadnought…out of luck. I have a new Formula Mod shock and no bike to put it in (230x65)

I had a chat with NSD and they have some pretty amazing prices on Ohlins at the moment so will probably go that way

Some pictures from it.

Embargo was until today apparently (well according to one post on that thread)

I like the idea of a 1750g Pike @ 130mm. Will be interesting to see what the Charger 3 damper is like.

Charger 3

Yeah, also interested. Cool they're still offering the Pike in 650b too, especially given Fox has binned that option for the 34.

Reckon that olive green Lyrik will look pretty awesome.

Typical considering I just bought a zeb.....

I wonder if the new buttercups are compatible with previous versions

I thought the ZEB already had the margarine-cups?

What is the Ultimate Bushing package? Bushings that don’t bind but only on the top level fork? Seems a common complaint on the Zeb.

You get bushing... in both legs
