Luckily the Giant AX1 29 is known for not bobbing too much, but.it would have been nice to have a proper platform. The CTD seems strange in that the Climb mode is too firm and the Trail may be too open to bobbing. Is it worth it for me to upgrade to the Factory fork? Or should I revert back to a 2012 RLC?ĭo you have any experience? What are your thoughts?Īlso, how do you like the rear shock? With propedal I was happy with the #2 setting giving me a platform. Have you compared the new CTD forks to the previous RLC? Are the CTD forks ok despite their lack of (EVO) or much fewer (Factory) low speed compression adjustments and no threshold adjustments for the Climb (lockout) mode? With the Factory forks you can either have remote lockout, or the 3 Trail settings, but not both. The new CTD forks are lighter than the RLC. Factory fork and shock also come with FIT technology and Kashima coatings. The Factory fork and shock can come with three Trail settings for low speed compression, not covering a very wide range. It actually doesn't even have a "lockout" except that the Climb mode is essentially similar. The new CTD Evo doesn't have low speed compression adjustments or lockout threshold adjust. Not sure I like the lack of low speed comp adjust and/or no lockout threshold adjustments. I bought a new bike and it came with an EVO CTD fork and shock.
