Here’s the XX Sid world cups with reworked lowers, steerer and crown.

All forks feature the new X loc lockout lever.

and in fork off postion i.e. locked out.

xloc-fork-end
at the fork end the banjo is free to swivel so you  get clean lines with cable routing. The whole system uses hydraulic fluid so shaves off 60 grams over the existing poploc

Give me a few minutes and I’ll wander over to the tech truck to get more pictures.

  1. Is the lockout button action nice and smooth (ooh, err)? Not hugely keen on the graphics, but RS are nice and provide lots of different colours.

  2. That lockout looks like it’s going to get tw*tted in the first crash to me.. be interested to see if that’s the case.

  3. All this new kit, I bet you’d have to be bloody good to notice differences or ride on or near the limit alot. I bet if you stepped off the upgrade train for a few years you could easily step back on and kit will be very similar still. Theres only soo many engineering shims…..manufacturing tolerance improvements that can go into a bike product…. then again Mazz are polishing up old kit for next year…

  4. I bet if you hadn’t rode a mountain bike for 10 years Hora you wouldn’t believe how good A mid price Mountain bike is – and that’s because of the trickle down from very very high end products £700.00 hardtails with decent stoppers and gears are because a disc brake 10-11 years ago cost nearly £500.00 including hub. So stop bitching. ;]

  5. You don’t have to be “bloody good” at all, riding up hill in the big ring then panic changing down is where you really notice the speed and ease of the front shift.

    It’s great when you planned to climb like that too.

  6. does spending loads of money on kit make you ride better or just feel good.
    its very easy to get caught up in the next best thing scenario.ive deore on one bike and xt on the other i really cant tell the difference except one is lighter than the other.
    are £700 fox forks really that much better than £300 forks and can the average joe really tell the diference.
    just enjoy your riding dont spend more time changing bits and thinking how this years model must be better than last years.the fun is in the riding.
