2021 Rock Shox ZEB 38mm fork?

HH4L · Apr 9, 2020

Let's start a real thread for this new fork!

Look fu*&"?& badass with that arch! Still love/wanted that black on black look! Do you guys have any more info? Coil option?

The better picture is the first one on the pinkbike link but don't know how I could save it so go take a look!

Odds on it being lighter and cheaper than the Fox 38?

Pretty high I think. The current Lyrik is 200 dollars cheaper already.

So it is DUB?

With Rockshox adding the new Debonair upgrades/improvements, it's clear they aren't giving up on the current chassis of forks. Which is good, because it'll mean that you can go out and get a Lyrik and run it at 140mm if you want, or at 170mm.

It also likely indicates that similarly to the Fox products, we're probably not seeing anything wild happening with new air spring tech.

Which leaves multi-chamber air springs to Manitou, EXT and Ohlins.

It is aimed at the e-bike market but as you can see people are running it on longer travel normal bikes as well.

Do a lookup of that serial number and find out more about it! [emoji39]

Yes, it's attached to an e-bike.

I can't see nothing on your picture! lool

Probably cheaper but I wouldn't mind the weight if it comes with a good coil option! If no coil option and Dougal is right (in his new thread about debonair 3), I'll just have to go with Vorsprung Coil kit in my Lyrik! I guess everyone's like me and wants more sensitive off the top travel, no?! That would be weird if he's right...

Well, no big changes technonogy wise! Still, maybe a coil option but I think they would already have talked about it...

If they've just increased the stanchions diameters and nothing else ... it's going to be difficult to compete against the new fox 38. Even the 36 has been updated! We'll see very soon ...

RS ZEB still using the C2.1? I hope they come up with some kind of internal improvements

I'm guessing people will gobble these up and then spend even more money with a boutique tuner to make it work right.

I guess highly tuned zeb will be still cheaper than 38 bone stock.
