EssenTTial Gravel Damper
FullFill Gravel
Modular Dropouts
Your gravel bike was supposed to allow you to get away from it all, so why does it confine you to roads and well-worn trails? Escape and explore further with the MRP Baxter suspension fork.
The Baxter greatly expands the capability, comfort, and speed of your gravel bike. 40 or 60mm of supple, but progressive travel erases washboards, removes the sting from embedded rocks, and makes descending fun again. Whether you’re racing, exploring the unknown, or long-distance bikepacking, the Baxter makes for a better adventure.

EssenTTial Gravel Damper
EssenTTial gives you consistent and controlled damping. The damper features twin-tube architecture and a low-friction, low-pressure floating piston design for long-lasting performance. The damper has been tuned for a firm, supportive ride and external adjustability gives you broad control of low-speed compression, tunable from open to locked-out
FullFill Gravel
The FullFill air-spring features independent positive and negative air chambers, providing more tuning opportunities than self-equalizing systems. The unique ability to run slightly higher negative spring pressure provides riders with a supremely supple initial stroke that’s unmatched by any other air-spring system. Huck Puck volume spacers can be added or removed to tune baseline spring progression.
Modular Dropouts
Baxter forks feature our modular dropout system, giving you the opportunity to change fork offset and hub compatibility (12x100 or 12x110 Boost). Four sets of dropouts are available: 12x100 “Flippable”, 12x100 “Fixed”, 12x110 “Flippable”, and 12x110 “Fixed”. “Flippable” dropout chips give two offset positions, whereas “Fixed” versions only provide one.
Great forks!! light feel on the chatter, don't know why I waited so long to put em on my gravel bike
I have had the Baxter fork for about a year. Once I figured out the tuning, setting both the negative and positive pressure, I have been able to set my sag and travel to absorb the rough roads I usually travel on. This has enable me to ride for 5 to 6 hours without feeling like I have been in a battle.
Replaced a charger 2 in a Lyrik with this Lift Damper. Much smoother ride, hand numbness is gone and it still handles drops and corners really good. Very responsive to rebound and damping adjustments, glad I made this choice and now have no regrets.
I'm riding a Canyon Strive:ON with the Fox Grip fork which was underwhelming at best. I originally planned to swap out the damper to the Fox X2 but the simplicity and weight specific tune caught my attention. Read some very positive reviews and pulled the trigger. Installation wasn't a big deal and the ride after install was insane. Literally PR'd all my local spots after install and that isn't BS. The bike just feels planted through everything. Could not be happier and this was just the refresh this bike needed to squeeze some more life out of it before an upgrade. Super stoked! Just get the damn thing, you will not regret it.
Bought this after being endlessly frustrated with my Grip 2 damper. Took a couple rides to dial in but feels just as I was hoping it would!
Glad I can still get what I needed quickly. Hallelujah and thanks.
Nice product. Fits well and looks great. Haven't had to test it yet but the chain stays on with proper tensioning.
