Fox float 150 32s v...
 

[Closed] Fox float 150 32s vs 34s - are the 34s noticeably less flexy in all honesty?

As title, is the stiffness noticeably different between the two?

one ride in I'd say most definitely, moving from a 140mm 32 to a 150mm 34 (both tapered and 15mm), less brake flutter, better tracking

not quite a 36/Lyric style transformation but much better than a 32 and I'd say even a revelation

Yes, also look at the new Pikes.

certainly stiffer. new 2014 CTD ones should have slightly better damping than the divey 2013 CTD models too...

Pikes, OTOH are a class above, IMO/IME.

Didn't I read that the 34's are give or take (10g) as heavy as 36's - but not as stiff, nor good (36's have the RC2 cartridge)?

Yep, big difference from 32 to 34 (not as big a difference as 32 to Revelation though IMO)
