Transition Bikes loves their Contours

 he bottomed it out multiple times in that vid. All forks bottom out. Even super monsters. If you look at the range of travel for the majority of the vid, it was pretty damn good if u ask me.

 yea looks like the fork has really good small/mid range compression, stays high in the travel. I'd just add a little bit more ramp up, so it doesnt plow through the travel on drops, thats all.

 they put it on a blinde side

 wow it looks so plush

 where was this video filmed?

 thats your opion but i find 40mm way to stiff for single crow forks, feels like your plowing throug stuff instead of flowing over it, ya dig

 They already have the 36 and 40 platform, why not a 38? Makes sense to me 38 mil is good for a 7 inch fork. Deeds, if you set it up properly it feels great, my totem is incredible.

 A 38mm fork wouldn't make much sense, in my opinion. Yes, it is a perfect combo of strength, stiffness, and weight, but it would require too much R&D for Fox to be able to sell it at a competitive price. If Fox were to make a 40mm SC fork, then they don't need to redesign the lowers, they can just take the 40's lowers, put new uppers on it, and design a new (bigger) air cartridge to take advantage of the extra space within a 40mm stanchion. As a bonus, they can re-release the Fox 40 DC fork with an air cartridge. I bet that would shave of a little bit of weight... at least enough to make it more competitive with the Boxxer for weight.

 40mm to stiff? The stiffness allows for smoother travel due to less flex... No dig.

They definetely should of went with 38mm stancions regardless of the re-design involved. Even 40mm. 36mm is going to allow for to much front/back flex.

 if u want a 38mm buy a marzocchi 66...

 Id never buy a marzo over rockshox. So, no..

 ya same, but i also think that rockshox and fox are doing it right and dont need to do any changing

 it is open. i was up there yesterday.... thats lower evolution...

 Yeah, ya big goof!

 Exactly! I think he was wrong in saying it was the RC2 model (the RC2 Van is the only Van model that comes with the Kashima coating) and it was just the lower end open-bath version of the new 180mm Van fork.

 Also, the basic open-bath Van model doesn't have the hydraulic bottom-out resistance that the RC2 model has:

 ... which is probably why he came so close to (if not completely) bottoming out in the video.

 haha i was expecting ice ice baby for the first 10 seconds or so, was looking forward to the song, but pressure also a great song.

 yes it was
vanilla made a new song using sampling of the original "Pressure" by The Queen feat. David Bowie.

 i dont think he bottomed out cuz the sag meter never reached the crown....

 If you let the lowers reach the crown youre going to damage the fork. He bottomed.

 You guys must be somewhat retarded... Queen was around long before Vanilla Ice, and "Ice Ice Baby" is an absolute butchery of an amazing song. Every time it is played, a baby is stillborn somewhere on earth.

 Unlimited props for singletrackman.
