The hype is real!
Is 32″ the next big thing? Who knows, the buzz is certainly there and so are we. Since we adapted the Samurai platform to fit a 32″ wheels it has been shown off on several shows and prototype bikes throughout the past two years and we’re happy to announce that it’s now also available for purchase.
For this fork we have 2 options of damping cartridges. The first is our new Intend Energizer lockout cartridge. It contends the same pistons and performance of our enduro forks, because we think the cross country bikes also benefits from downhill performance. The unique architecture combines the fact, that the lubrication oil can not flow down the lower tube by having the sealhad on the right place and nevertheless the compression piston on the top, which is necessary for a lockout on the crown. The Energizer damping cartridge is as lighweight as the RS charger RD and has 3 position lockout. There is a Open-mode, a Gravel-mode and the Road-mode with 99%, which lets the fork go in the sag slowly for a proper uphill position. The Energizer cartridge has a maximum stroke of 130mm while having the best damping performance.
