If you were to pit a rockshox vivd air against a fox x2 air (performance), which would you want on your everyday bike?
As far as I see it, both are burly, rockshox is a bit cheaper, the fox has the climb switch. Rockshox has a few more bells and whistles at that price point, but fox gives you less dials to screw up! It'd be going on a longish travel 29er and raced maybe 4-6 times a year. The rest on a mix of off-piste trail, bike parks and long days out on the peak district.
I'm sure I'm about to open the gates of hell with this post. Aaaaaaaand go
Get a coil shock *runs away*
Owned both, both are good, the Fox has a climb switch and probably has the edge on performance anyway.
It's got more dials too, hasn't it?
Fox dpx2 is worth a look too.
Dvo topaz worth a pint?
neither
Dvo topaz worth a pint?
Location and taste probably comes into it, but around 146 pints, I'd say.
Was looking at the performance fox so it's just got low speed I think compression and rebound. Not an issue as I tend to run high speed open
