You may call yourself a beginner, an enthusiast, or maybe even a casual rider. We like to think of you as fashionably late to the party. Like the old saying goes, it's better late than never. We're glad you found the place. By place we mean the trail. Like all good party favors, the RockShox Recon Gold was designed to spawn smiles.
The Rockshox Recon contains all of the features you need to tackle the trail head-on, including 100mm of plush travel, a stiff tapered steerer tube, and trail-worthy 32mm 6000 series straight wall aluminum stanchions with low friction anodization. The Solo Air spring lets you add air to your forks through a single Schrader valve, filling both the positive and negative air spring chambers simultaneously, keeping them in perfect equilibrium to provide a plush, predictable ride that can be set up in seconds.
Using the Turnkey lockout, you'll be able to achieve maximum efficiency as the PopLock allows you to lockout and release your fork on the fly. The handlebar remote is very easy to access, and will keep your attention on the trail. Additionally, the TurnKey damper's patented blow-off design takes the hit for you, absorbing an unexpected hit instantly. Now, if only we all had friends that would do such a thing€¦ Thank you Recon Gold!

DT Swiss has released a new high engagement hub for trail and gravity riders.The new DEG hub still utilizes DT Swiss' ratchet system, but the ratchet itself is almost twice as big as the current ratchet in order to match the large hub shell of the new hub. The max number of teeth available used to be 54, but the new DEG ratchet has grown to 90 teeth, which provides 4º of engagement angle, greatly reducing the play between engagement points.
For 2025, Fox has come out swinging with an all-new lineup of forks and dampers. The new Grip X2, Grip X and Grip SL are replacing the outgoing Grip 2, Grip and Fit4 dampers which have provided amazing performance in Fox forks for years. There have been some pretty solid improvements in performance and longevity of this line of suspension and we're excited to share the information with you!
