Charger Damper: Performance focused, benefits include; No compromise for lockout -The efficiency circuits (Pedal and Lock) sit behind the performance damping, meaning no sacrifice in bump performance for shredding downhill while keeping the ability to maintain pedalling stability for those leg burning climbs, Rapid Recovery – More control with less energy.

Power Bulge simply reinforces the lower leg to allow for an oversized bushing, increasing stiffness and maximising your ride.

The Rapid Recovery System allows the shock to recovery faster between consecutive bumps, letting the wheel track the ground with greater precision. This more active suspension system doesn‚Äôt pack up and enables the bike to ride in a higher and softer part of the spring rate.

It changes your fork‚Äôs travel up to 30mm without changing its small bump performance. So, with a simple onboard turn and a click you can switch from climbing like a demon to bombing downhill with confidence.

Things to look out for when buying Forks

There are obviously lots of different considerations when you’re buying Forks but here are our top tips for ensuring you get yourself the best product at the best price.

Read reviews

Probably one of the most important factors for us when you’re shopping for Forks is to read lots of reviews. There are so many different options available, so it’s important to spend time reading what customers think of one product over another. For example we selected RockShox Lyrik Ultimate Forks 2020 as the top RockShox Forks based on it having such good customer reviews. So we’d really recommend you take the time to read some of the reviews. There are a total of 85 available from RockShox so you can see why it’s worthwhile narrowing down your choices by listening to what other customers have to say in their reviews. That said there are slightly less RockShox products in the Forks category, with 69 in total.

Shop around for a deal

It’s obvious, but important. Shopping around for the best deal can really make the difference. There are huge advantages to shopping online, and the savings is definitely one of them. On average you can expect to pay £285 for a product in the Forks category, with the most expensive being £1599.95 and cheapest coming in at £0.99. It’s also worth considering the average price specifically for products from RockShox, which is £389.09 and the most expensive is £1099.99 and cheapest just £7.51.

Go with a retailer that you trust

We say it above, shopping online has many advantages, but we’d strongly recommend buying from a retailer that you know and trust. We’d always say that your gut instinct is the most powerful tool when you’re shopping online. If a deal looks too good to be true, guess what? It probably is. So as a general rule, stick to the big retailers like Chain Reaction Cycles UK when shopping for Forks.

Consider the shipping method

How urgently you need a product can have quite a big influence on who you buy from, and even how much you’re willing to pay. Buying online but then collecting in-store has become increasingly popular as it gives you the convenience of shopping from the comfort of your home but then also allows you to pick up your product as fast as that same day.

If you aren’t buying from a brick-and-mortar retailer then take your time to look at the shipping policy and prices to give you an idea of what you can expect to pay and how fast you can expect to receive the Forks.

Warranty and returns

Another big factor for buying products like Forks is what happens should something go wrong. It’s really worth knowing what the returns policy is like at the retailer that you choose to buy from and what level of warranty you can expect. Many products come as standard with a one year warranty, but it’d always worth spending a bit of time finding out for sure.
