This promises to help improve initial sensitivity and reduce any unpleasant top-out sensations. RockShox has moved to a new coil spring to handle top-out duties. RockShox says the goal was to ensure riders could maintain traction and keep the front wheel tracking over bumps, but without the fork moving excessively when the rider puts the power down.
