Looking at getting some coil u-turn Lyriks 2nd hand and I thought the 2010 versions came with Mission Control, but the shop websites are mostly saying Motion Control. Can you Lyrik owners confirm? If they're only Motion Control I might get some new Sektors instead.

Cheers Rob, but I think those are the 2011 forks that do have Mission Control. I'm after 2nd hand and hopefully 2010, so was just double checing before I look at new coil Sektors for the same money as 2nd hand coil Lyriks.

Think the standard Lyrik had motion control, Lyrik DH had mission control?

Mission control is the best one with high and low comp plus floodgate. Some
Oem forks were motion control only. Mission cont (mico) DH is high and low but no floodgate.

I have a coil lyrik u turn 160 with a mico dh damper. You can modify a STD mico to remove floodgate and increase plushness.

Just to add I think the MoCo were the cheaper basic versions

MiCo were the standard aftermarket forks.

I think its fairly easy to pick up different damper units. Check MTBR Suspension forum for loads of info on Lyriks.

Oh and ignore the spring weight information RS publish its miles off. Im 90kg using a std spring - RS reckon I should be on Xfirm.

Ah, right. So the 2010 ones that CRC and Wiggle, etc. have with MoCo are likely to be OEM forks. Righto, so 2010 2nd hand forks that were aftermarket will have MiCo. Cool.

Thanks for that.

Rickos - yeah that sums up my understanding but still best to check and maybe get a photo of the damper to confirm if buying 2nd hand.

Lyrik coils are ace - I dont have sektor experience but I bet a 2010 2nd hand Lyrik will be considerably better than a new sektor. Also the Lyrik is a 35mm stantion not sure if the sektors will have same stiffness.
