So, I can't decide if having the fox shock, is worthwhile. It's for a design that doesn't need a pro pedal shock.
What are your thoughts?
absoloutley nothing between them other than cosmetis=cs TBH
Yeah that's what I thought, I. don't care about the cosmetics, just the damping.
What makes you say that though?
Anyone else?
I'm chuffed to bits with the CTD that was sent to me as a warranty replacement for the Fox Triad on my Camber...so much so that I bought one for my Wolf Ridge and am extremely happy with the results.
I've never tried the Monarch though, so I can't really compare. LoCo is the guy to ask.
My Mega came with a Monarch. Loco has tuned it for me and it's perfect 🙂
It depends on if you like adjusting your compression damping. I could ride my bike without using the compression adjust but I prefer it with.
Are they both stock with a bike or aftermarket?
Both probably but the one that is tuned to you and the bike will be better
Well both are tuned to the bike, a transition covert. I don't care for the ctd adjustments, just which will feel better?
I think I'll just go with the monarch to be honest.
sorry I reckon I missed a couple of words there - whichever is better tuned to you and the bike - depends how RS & Fox read the request.
The Fox Float is a better shock, get that.
I had this dilemma a couple of weeks ago. Couple of bits of info I had that might be useful. Firstly, TF Tune recommended me the Fox over the Monarch when I spoke to them. Not sure if this is about brand allegiance or what, but in no uncertain terms the technician I spoke to reckoned the Fox was a better / more reliable shock. Something else - people I know who use the CTD say ignore the settings - they're unhelpful and confusing. Descend mode is supposed to be crap, so they use the Trail setting for descending. There's also a spacer you can easily fit inside the shock, which alters the compression and stops the blow-through people sometimes talk about.
