Fork Setup
SLX drivetrains and X Fusion suspension.
X-Fusion RL2 Forks
X-Fusion RL2 trail forks offer an efficient
and high quality damping system in a
simple package. The RL2 sealed car-
tridge damper systems offers external
rebound and lockout adjustment backed
with an internal mid-valve compres-
sion circuit. The Mojo SL-R features the
32mm chassis Velvet RL2 with 140mm
of travel, the Mojo HD-R 650b features
the 34mm chassis Sweep RL2 with
140mm of travel and the Ripley features
the 34mm chassis Trace RL2 with
120mm of travel. Pressure charts can be
found on page 26.
added features to their line of Float
forks and shocks to make it easier for
the user to adjust to changing trail
conditions. It’s called CTD (Climb Trail
Descend) and is changed by the lever
at the top of the right fork leg. As with
prior Fox forks, cranking the blue lever
clockwise increases the amount of force
it takes to make the fork move. Just think
of ‘Righty Tighty, Lefty Loosie’ (same
goes for the shock).
Fox Float 34
On the Mojo HDR, the standard fork
is a Fox Float 34 CTD with 160mm of
travel. The HDR 650b comes with a Fox
Float 34 CTD with 140mm of travel.
The front axle is now a 15QR.
Fox Talas Forks
Fox Talas forks feature adjustable
travel, via a lever on top of the left
fork leg. For the Ripley, we supply a
custom 140/120mm travel version of
the Talas 34 CTD (The standard Talas
is 140/110mm). Other than the travel
adjust feature, the adjustments are the
same as the Float forks. The air pres-
sures required are slightly different
than the Float so we’re reprinting them
(on page 26).
CTD
Climb enables a firm low-speed com-
pression setting. We’d use it for paved
or smooth fire road climbs. Trail mode
dials back the low-speed compression
damping from climb mode. And once
you set the lever to Trail mode, changing
between soft, medium, and firm settings
on the outer dial enable you to further
fine tune the low-speed compression
damping (If on Trail mode, we usually
prefer the soft setting). Fox recom-
mends the Trail setting for an optimal
blend of pedaling efficiency and bike
control on variable terrain. Descend
mode changes the compression setting
to full-open for maximum control and
plush performance on steep, aggressive
descents.
Special Blend
Replacing the SLX group for 2014 on
Ibis bikes is a group we call Special
Blend. Special Blend bikes come with
