Hey, has anyone had any experience of both the Luftkappe and the EVOL air springs?

I'm due to send in my Fox 34 for a full service so was considering getting an air spring upgrade at the same time.

Luftkappe was an amazing upgrade for my Yari forks, so much so I scraped plans for a Lyrik conversion. The Fox version is so new I doubt there are many users yet, but I don't know anyone who's regretted it for a RS.

If you email Vorsprung about it you'll get an honest answer of which will work best (I know that sounds mental but they're an unusual business like that - I've seen Steve dissuade people from adding Luftkappe's to bikes based on how a rider has their current fork set up).

I'm interested in this.

Got a 2016 Fox 34. Currently tossing up between a Silverfish E18 + EVOL upgrade, or going TFTuned push tune + Luftkappe.

Buying a 2018 air shaft direct from Foxracing.de and DIY fitting is pretty good value in Fox terms at around £50, compared to Luftkappe which is twice that. So if they perform the same (big if), then Fox would be the way to go.
