Fox is the best. Pizza is the best. Ford is #2.

Review: 2024 Norco Optic - High Pivot, Short Travel
I have a lot of respect for Norco. They fully support the IBD, they have an amazing team of engineers, and they're focused on making a solid product for a reasonable price. I hope they continue to do well.

Those are bodies, but yes, they were cracking on most Trunion sizes. Fox updated them to a 7000 series alloy for better strength and it seems to have worked.

Review: 2024 Fox Float Factory Shock
@MtbSince84: Just like you do when you're in a rush, I make spelling errors and oftentimes my autocorrect changes it to the wrong word. The theory is still correct.

Review: 2024 Fox Float Factory Shock
@Speedychad: Yeah, that's why damper architectire is designed to reduce cavitation. Sorry bud but you don't seem to know what you're talking about. Just google "damper cavitation" and you'll find a better explanation.

Review: 2024 Fox Float Factory Shock
@thustlewhumber: It's like getting the Benz. All fluids have a vapor pressure and will absorb a certain amount of gass at certain pressures. That fluid will then release that gas when the pressure is released. That's a for of cavitation. You blood absorbs nitrogen at higher pressures under water, and if you sirfa e before they have a chance to slowly dissipate you'll get the Benz.

Review: 2024 Fox Float Factory Shock
@Speedychad:
That isn't the case. Cavitation is quite common in suspension, especially front suspension where dampers aren't charged. Remember that rear suspension on a bike is usually between 2:1 and 3:1, meaning the shaft speen on the shock will move 2 to 3 times faster than the rear axle. So yes, cavitation certainly happens on MTB suspension.
