I´ve got a 2010 Lyrik Coil UTurn 115-160mm Motion Control and rebound.

It needs a service now after the summer and I was wondering if it´s possible to change the MoCo for a Mission Control DH damper.

I´m running the xSoft spring and I´ve found the fork too “divey” but without coming anywhere near full travel. If I add compression it dives less but uses even less travel.
I switched from a medium spring originally (even worse).

Compared to riding a bike with a Marzocchi 55 RC3 Ti it feels nowhere near as good. So I´m stuck between modifying the Lyrik or sell it on and buy a zocchi. (Would like a Bos Deville but their service setup puts me off.)

Anyone modded their Lyrik sucessfully? Or had similar issues?

you can by the MiCo, infact I may have one up for grabs in a few months time. But if looking to service as well I would give Loco a ring. They stock a lot of RS internals, and would be able to advise on what would/would not address your issues.

For the dive, put some compression on, but turn the floodgate down, but yes unless you 5 ft 8 and skinny I imagine soft spring could be underkill… how much sag do you get?

No floodgate to turn down. I get compression and rebound only.
Am also 5ft 7 and skinny :/ sag is about right.

the dna moco should fit.floodgate nearly open and damping nearly closed works for me.
