Rockshox Pike Select Charger RC Debonair+ C1 Fork

Description

The All-New Rockshox Pike Select Charger RC Debonair+ C1 Fork is for the new school of trail riders. Not afraid of the rooty chutes. Unintimidated by the calf-crushing climbs. With a redesigned 35mm chassis offering less weight but retaining critical stiffness, they feature longer upper and lower bushings with better overlap to increase stiffness and reduce friction, new bolt-in adapters to switch between torque cap enabled hubs or standard hubs, bolt-on fender compatibility and Maxima Plush Dynamic suspension fluids to maximise performance, the new Pike Select, with Charger RC Damper and Debonair+,is here to level up your trail game.

The new DebonAir+ design addresses the two conflicting traits that most riders want and results in them working in harmony together, better than ever. With a larger negative air volume, small bump compliance and plushness are balanced with increased support and a more consistent ride height to deliver a fork that is buttery smooth, ultra-supportive and maintains ride height when things get steep.
