Suspension forks can be one of the more costly yet effective upgrades you can add to your mountain bike.

More and more models make setting up and fine-tuning easier, with some brands providing air pressure stickers or interactive tuning apps for setup or fine-tuning purposes.

RockShox's Zeb fork was designed specifically to tackle massive days on demanding trails.

Ranging in travel from 160mm to 190mm, its performance matches that of its Lyrik and Pike counterparts with some minor tweaks–most notably the new RC2 damper installed into 38mm stanchions that offers supercharged small bump sensitivity, mid stroke support, and impressively low levels of friction thanks to an enhanced lower bushing design that maximises overlap, as well as using its own brand Maxima Plush fluid–making fork ownership an impressive experience indeed!

At its core, RockShox's Zeb fork is designed to take hard punishment on any terrain.

It can absorb significant impacts without becoming harsh; bottoming out easier than Fox's budget 38; yet remains generally calm and composed upon major hits with minimal weight shift during big hits. Set-up should be straightforward if you follow RockShox's air recommendations; this fork should give a great ride from day one.
