Clear as mud singletrackross thanks, you stated in the article "the new zeb is only available in one offset per wheel size with rockshox settling on 44 for 29 and 38 for the 27.5", your words Ross, but it appears 27.5 is available it 44 too, which makes me a happy bunny 🙂. Cheers singletrackandi, your article seems right so give Ross a slap.😁

But you don’t understand the FOMO I have with my 51mm forks!

Think of those that crave 37mm offsets

I just wish they would make them in the old Psylo Race gold colour....

Slowly but surely the offset creeps back to what we were riding 4 years ago....

What's new? Not the first time and won't be the last. Surprised we didn't see a 20mm pinch bolted axle make an appearance, but that would make sense...

Vast majority of the industry is clueless, substandard engineering, poorly validated, poor manufacturing (and QC) and over priced (for the quality you get).

Amazing when you read the articles on fork offset and no one can really explain it (apart from CP), the manufacturers won't mention why they've changed (I suppose they could say, well Chris Porter said it was betterer).

Good point!

46, 51, 42, 44.

Progress! 🙈

Well that's just not true for 29in, we've been on 51mm offset for time.

I don't really notice any issues on two of my bikes, but the longer one does feel like it might perhaps benefit from a shorter offset, but I'm ****ed if I'm spending £900 to experiment with it.
