EXCLUSIVE: DVO Emerald Inverted DH Fork - First Look
For a long time I've said i thought forks like the 40 were too stiff. this is based on experience too. on long harsh tracks in the alps i swapped the 40 for an old shiver i had. never looked back and still run the shivers today. the little bit of added flex and smoother damping made the bike a lot easier to control and reduced fatigue at the end of the day. the only downside to the shiver that i found was that i couldn't fit a good mud guard (no one wants moto guards flapping around). with this "bolt on arch", one could easily run an effective mud guard too. i hope the internals will be nice and tough too, again, only the shiver and 005/06 888RC have been totally reliable for me - but i am a big lad! haha. anyway, hopefully these will come in at a competitive price point, because i am very interested! Good luck guys!
