EssenTTial 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 With Ramp Control
The FullFill air-spring features independent positive and negative air chambers, providing more tuning opportunities than self-equalizing systems. Ramp Control technology gives riders powerful, speed-sensitive, and on-the-fly control of end-stroke ramp-up via a 16-position knob. Huck Puck volume spacers can be added or removed to tune baseline spring progression.
Automatic Casting Vent
Pressure relief valves are great for expelling pressure build up in your lower casting that comes from temperature and elevation changes, but they have one problem: you must remember you activate them. With our new ACV (Automatic Casting Vent) technology, that’s no longer the case. These vents are set from the factory to blow-off when pressure levels rise enough to influence your effective spring rate, keeping your ride consistent regardless of environmental factors. Two ACV vents are found on our highest-end air-sprung forks with the EssenTTial damper, while only one is needed on forks with the Lift Damper. With the Lift Damper taking up less leg volume than the EssenTTial Damper, pressure never builds in the damper leg of Lift-equipped forks to necessitate venting.
Excellent product for the V1, and the Forbidden factory seems to agree and now uses them for the V2.
RockShox Charger damper have had very little damping, but still ran harsh. The latest Charger 3 only makes the harshness worse. The Lift damper actually does what it says on the tin, and does it without any harshness. You can dial in LSC to get support and higher ride height and it's still plush.
It's also nice not having to worry about bladders potentially leaking out trying to find replacements.
It's just a really well designed damper which gives you control and traction without your hands hurting after the ride.
This thing replaced the Charger 3 in my Lyrik. All I ever did was complain about how bad it was. My eyeballs were constantly rattling out of my head. With the MRP Damper all I can do is talk about how awesome it is. My bike feels like a whole new bike now and I can hold on without being rattled to the core and I get no more hand pain.
I have been looking for a chainguide for my mountain bike that doesn't have any iscg tabs and this really helped.
