Tested and approved by Vital MTB, X Fusion's Metric Fork pulls no punches. It features their HLR damper system that utilizes a twin-tube cartridge design, with high and low speed independently adjustable compression and rebound control. Their flux pistons minimize friction, keeping the spring efficient even under a load. The Neutra valve uses pressure release valves to neutralize internal pressure, providing the most consistent spring rate characteristics available. Nvolve Wiper seals reduce drag and increase durability, extending the forks lifespan.
With 180mm of smooth travel, this fork plows easily through even the roughest terrain. Compatible with 203mm discs, it accommodates the utmost in braking power. The magnesium lower casting is protected by carbon fiber shields to prevent denting and cracking. A single-bolt pinch axle is light and sturdy, keeping your rolling smooth, and the tapered steer tube maintains stable and predictable handling.

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.
