Rockshox Boxxer Charger Cartridge Upgrade Piston/Valve Kit Discontinued Technology
Thinking
of upgrading your old Boxxer to the new Charger Damper? Boxxer
35mm 2010-2015 Retail Price $449 Why buy a charger damper when you
have to send it to us anyway to get it to work!
This will make your fork feel like a completely different
fork,
For those who want to keep the Charger damper and want a lower cost alternative to the complete cartridge replacement We are offering a replacement compression valve and rebound piston kit for the Boxxer. This kit will allow you to revalve and add adjustable midvalve to the charger damper. The stock rebound valve does have a midvalve of sorts, it is a 16 mm x .15 shim supported by a check spring with a bit of resistance. Rockshox is using the same size cartridge as ours, (they use the
same 20 mm cartridge and 6 mm ID shims that we use) and our rebound
piston and compression valve from our cartridge fits right in and
allows us to offer this as a tuning option for the stock internals.
This would give riders the option to retain the charger damper system
and add features to the internals that create tunable midvalves, compression
and rebound ported valving and reshimming options and conversion to
hydraulic oil lock ABS system option. The stock piston and valves
are very limited as to what you can do to the shims for revalving
and midvalve. The Piston/Valve Kit for the Charger Damper Compression valve and rebound piston * New Compression valve Optional hydraulic oil lock ring and ABS cone Converts the new air ramp-up system to hydraulic oil lock system for a more effective bottoming system, the air ramp-up affects the last 1/2 of the travel adding to mid stroke harshness, the oil lock system only affects the last 40 mm. Option Price $89 *Self install kit assumes good working knowledge of internals and service procedures. Need us to install it for you, just send your fork to us and we will install it for $100 including Spectro 85/150 oil. |

FAQ'S The damper seems to have too much slow/low speed comression
and feels a bit sBoxxery on slow bumps? Just seems extreme ditching the Boxxer bladder for
open bath, in that case might as well set up a Lyrik. I assume the nitrogen sleeve is a phase 2 for your
mod - yes? I see the ultimate value of the mod over the Open Bath if you want your shop to do it instead of you (maintain
like a stock Boxxer per se). Wouldn't the nitrogen sleeve take away
another chunk of the 110g weight savings and limit the ease of maintenance
since you need a new nitrogen charge after servicing - leaving just
resale appeal? Do you believe the nitrogen sleeve version would
outperform the Open Bath in any way? Just seems like sucking up
the 110g and going open bath may be the easier path :) Thoughts? I understand that the friction connection and it being
a bladder means if the force is too large the bladder can burst
or break the connection? When will it be available? And how much? |
