Not trying to derail, but what happened to all the Rock Shox rear suspension tuning stuff?

Not sure but it's most likely something about them taking a step back with all their projects. I think they were getting ahead of themselves and weren't able to keep up. I know they put the Fox MX tune gen-2 on hold indefinately just because it was becoming too much to keep up with.

Lol @ the blue travel indicator O-ring. Sounds like they're trying to pad out the list.

Cool to see the rest of it though.

[jonKranked]

is this just for fit cart 40's? or pre-fit cart too?

I was thinking the startegically placed push decal was...lol


As far as their fox hi/lo mx tune I think the cost and fact that the rc4 has all that already and comes oe on a majority of bikes made it redundant.
I don't think they caught up to the curve with the new machine learning curve and cost and rc4 flooding the market.

We did bite off a bit more than we could chew in 2011. The changes that we've made are starting to settle in. First it was our RC2/4 Elite Tuning package, now the 40, and next.....well, keep an eye on our facebook page.

LOL....these are items in the bill of materials for part number creation therefore they end up on the site. Hey....you need them!

I'm assuming you meant right side up vs inverted FIT cartridge. Yes, we cover all of the models.

Definitely not redundant, and something we have a significant investment into. It will be back....

Definitely not the case! In fact you can see the attached pic to see what just showed up a couple of weeks ago. Our manufacturing division is cranking!

US and "In-House" Manufacturing is alive and well at PUSH!

I have one of the few 2011 MX-Tune DHX's and I can say, it's not like the RC4. I had the RC4 before my MX-Tune, and the main difference I could feel between the two was that the MX-Tune DHX had a much more supple, stiction-less feel than a stock RC4.

Additionally, the RC4 didn't have the LSC range that my MX-Tune had. With the RC4, I was always in between the $#&% detents on the LSC dial - it was either too soft for pedalling or too harsh making the rear end chatter. The MX-Tune has bottomless HSC, and supple LSC compared to an RC4 and improved mid-stroke over a stock DHX.

Darren, you are awesome.

I've been wondering the same thing...

I've been wondering the same thing...

here is the thread on mtbr regarding them dropping the custom built monarch's - they decided to get back to their 'roots' of offering tuning for existing product rather than building products from the ground up. it appears to have been more work and more involved than they initially thought and possibly their core business of tuning existing product was suffering to a degree.

darren comments more on RS product tuning there as well.

Yes, that's what I was wondering. Thanks for confirming

I've had a Vivid sitting waiting for the team issue tune for a year. I've given up on it and will send my RC4 to Avy to get tuned.

Ditto. If it goes >1yr like it has, it makes sense to stop teasing and take it off the site.

I'm sure I don't know what it takes to run and manage PUSH, but having ads for products that say out of stock or unavailable for over a year is a big turn off. Clearly I want to do business with PUSH, but I may just get an Avalanche in the end, or maybe PUSH will start making things they advertise....

MX Tuned DHX or Team Vivid -- what's the story; "soon" doesn't cut it.

Lateral - but the damper in a Vivid coil and Vivid air are the same, why no AIR service?
