Samesieszzzzzzzz
I’d like to try a MEZZER.
I bet a MEZZER pro looks sick on that raw.

Mezzer is a good fork when it’s right….ive had 3 now, first two replaced under warranty. The versatility with internal travel
Change is great for multiple applications
I’ve run it at 140mm and 180mm and mid stroke support is hard to beat…..but,
It’s suffers with small
Bump and Stiction off the top and requires service etc more often than I’d like.

Hey thanks for throwing that out there.
My trails are chewed up garbage, and little off the top type stuff is plentiful ….

So does the EXT ERA.

We have someone here in Germany who does an outstanding job at tuning the Mezzer Pro and people who have tried it, swear on it being the best fork out there.

I've been able to set up mine with great small bump compliance after fiddling with the chambers a bit. But I have also had issues, 3 creaky CSU's (replaced under warranty) had a noisy damper replaced, have had air seep from positive to negative chambers a few times (causing it to stick down).
When it is working it works great, fantastic even. But it does seem to have more issues than the Zeb on my other bike.

It’s a nice estate. The grass is a bit long, but the blossoms on the tree smell Divine in the summer breeze and the spire ; does pair well with the Chardonnay

Here you go. Finished. There's a new wheel set with Berd Spokes coming this weekend with endless coloring options for me. Smile

A rawed Intend Grace FR.

I hope that the auto translation is any good. I don't have the time to translate such a long video. In short. The +1.5° Works Components headset is a very good fit for this bike. At 16kg it's not too heavy either and rides better than ever.
