Trolu, ciezko jest mi nie traktowac powaznie wypowiedzi uzytkownika z ridemonkey ktory siedzi w temacie. Masz na tyle dobre pojecie o amortyzatorach RS, ze wypisujesz mi tu glupie odsylacze?
"No joke man. The compression assemblies in the Race are pretty much garbage, everything about them is pretty cheaply made, and it honestly strikes me as something that was designed by somebody who didn't really have a specific idea of what he wanted the thing to do. Out of our rental fleet of ~15 bikes all with those forks, I would say that in 3 months of more or less daily use, I personally saw about half of them blow the compression piston out of the comp assembly because it's only clipped in with a little piece of plastic. The usual result of this was the piston jamming sideways in the stanchion and creating a hard stop that felt like bottom out, halfway through the travel when it was hit by the rebound piston. We pulled heaps of them out altogether and most people preferred the ride that way anyway (which is probably a lot to do with the type of people who typically rent DH bikes, not the more experienced/picky riders who tend to prefer setups with more comp damping)."
