Stuff Preview: RockShox Revelation Race Dual Air
Originally posted on May 21, 2010 at 21:18 pmThis week we have the RockShox Revelation Race Dual Air fork.
Manufacturer’s Description
This year’s Revelation brings an all new chassis to the table with proven lightweight Dual Air or Air U-Turn and travel increased to a formidable 150mm. The smooth responsiveness provided by the Motion Control or BlackBox Motion Control damping is paired with the confidence that comes from ultra stiff 32mm aluminum uppers and a Maxle Lite option. Even when the trail is hell, this fork is pure heaven.
Dual Air
With independently adjustable positive and negative air spring chambers, the Dual Air is race or trail ready, highly tunable and one of the lightest air spring systems on the market.
Motion Controlâ„¢
With Motion Control, forks chew up climbs with incredible efficiency while the patented lockout blow-off valve and floodgate control immediately absorb any bumps along the way. An elegant design in a simple and lightweight package.
