FAST Suspension DC3 Compression Damping Upgrade Comes to Lyrik & Pike
Released for the longer travel ZEB forks earlier this year, the Fast Suspension DC3 compression damping insert is now also available for the Rockshox Lyrik (140-170mm) and Pike (120-140mm) forks, both using 35mm stanchions.While Rockshoxs latest updates add some interesting features to improve smoothness, particularly on the air spring side, Fast Suspension still thinks they can do better. on the compression damping side of things (and yes, these inserts should work on the newest models with the Charger 3.2 dampers).How? By adding a third compression damping circuit, among other things.By now, weve all heard about High and Low speed compression damping. The DC3 adds Mid-speed compression, as well as their own take on high- and low-speed circuits. Rather than reword it all, heres how Fast Suspension explains it:Low-speed compression manages the overall balance of the bike in normal riding conditions, preventing excessive diving under braking or when maneuvering the bike at slower speed.Mid-speed compression acts to control forces induced by more aggressive weight transfers, such as when cornering in berms or picking your way through a rock garden it acts almost as a gas pedal for your bike, allowing it to generate speed as opposed to bogging down in rougher terrain.High-speed compression damping adds control to the harshest and most violent events, such as landing big drops or hitting square edges at speed. High-speed compression prevents harsh bottom-outs and keeps the last part of your suspensions travel available for when its really needed.Theyre also made to order, custom tuned for each rider based on your preferences, riding style, weight, etc. This internal tuning sets the high- and mid-speed compression damping characteristics. But, it comes with fork oil and a valving kit if you want to fine tune those settings yourself (and youre confident that you know what youre doing).Theres an external low-speed compression adjustment knob that gives you 35 (thirty five!!!) clicks of adjustment. The circuit simply drops in to replace the stock compression damping circuit, no special adapters or tools needed. Its fully sealed with its own IFP, so it should be a pretty simple upgrade.Its available now for the following Rockshox models:ZEB SELECT A1, ZEB SELECT A2, ZEB R A1PIKE SELECT B3-B4 2020-2022 / PIKE SELECT C1 2023 and +LYRIK SELECT C2-C3 2020-2022 / LYRIK SELECT D1 2023 and +MSRP is 279 including VAT.Fast-Suspension.comThe post FAST Suspension DC3 Compression Damping Upgrade Comes to Lyrik & Pike appeared first on Bikerumor.
