Suspension is one part of a complex system, connected to the bike and directly to the rider. The EXT ERA fork has been designed with a new approach, looking at dynamic geometry, br inging together the needs of the bike and rider to offer the best performance to both.The EXT ERA fork uses the HS3, hybrid air spring. Two positive air chambers work with one, high volume self activating negative air chamber. Combined with a high-volume damper cartridge this system offers incredible tuning capability and sets a new level for support in a suspension fork.HS3 is focused on mid-stroke support around the dynamic sag position while offering amazing sensitivity and bottom out protection.The air spring is complemented by an integrated coil spring to create a frictionless sliding movement and a highly responsive fork giving the best grip to the front tire.New, patent pending, crown design that increases stiffness in all load directions and gives more riding precisionEXT engineers looked at everything that needed a low friction solution to improve smoothness and sensitivity, that took them to their motorsport heritage:Developed in the World Rally Championship the new DU bushing material used in the in the magnesium Lower are sized to a defined tolerances for each fork assembly and works in harmony with the dedicated EXT oil and guarantees zero striction and super low friction properties even when combined with high side loads.THe EXT ERA fork adopts an innovative Floating internal shaft guide in the damper cartridge uses a Superfinish shaft taking friction to the lowest possible level.EXT high-volume cartridge uses a high flow piston to generate control for your bike, the ERA is a performance upgrade for your bike and your riding. Like all EXT products the ERA offers a fully tunable fork with a useable damping range for each rider and riding style.The new cartridge also introduces a new Bump valve design (HDRV – High Dynamic Response Valve) with 2 different shim stack for mid and high speed and an Internal Floating Piston guided piston combined with a bespoke thrust bearing to enhance fast response and guidance. SPECS: HS3, Hybrid coil and air spring: with 2 adjustable positive air chambers and high volume negative chamber New Crown design: forged AL 7050 T6 to substantially increase stiffness High volume Cartridge with Ø22 mm piston, engineered circuit to separate bump and rebound oil flow HDRV unique compression valve system Ø24 mm piston IFP reservoir Ø24 mm piston Dropout 15QR Boost Torque Cap® compatible (15×110 mm) 3 way adjustable, Low and High speed Bump and Rebound Main strut low friction system: new DU bushing material from our WRC technology combined with dedicated EXT oil Cartridge and Air spring low friction System: innovative floating shaft guide combined with the EXT proprietary coating and superfinish chrome shaft.
