MRP Ribbon Air ForkFeaturing 35mm stanchions, combined with MRP’s renowned technologies, this mountain bike (MTB) fork is ready for the rigours of enduro racing and all mountain riding terrain conditions. This model is equipped with Boost axle spacing, which gives it additional stiffness and strength as you tackle unpredictable, mixed terrains, while also ensuring smooth, effective and consistent handling as you weave between the trails. MRP Ribbon forks have received updates including the ChocoLUXE internals and Norglide Bushings, providing less stiction and better-than-ever performance.Enduro Forks with Adjustable Air Spring SystemMRP’s goal in designing the Ribbon was seemingly impossible: building on the success of the heralded Stage, create a fork with higher performance, more adjustability, more features, all at a significantly lower weight. Those incredible demands meant that the brand had to reimagine elements like casting design, reconfigure damper architecture, and completely retarget performance goals. The result is not just the best fork they’ve ever produced, they’ve classed it as the new industry benchmark.With other features like the highly tuneable FulFill air-spring, low-pressure IFP damper, PSST pressure relief valves, and Outcast arch design and the acclaimed Ramp Control technology, this is the enduro fork to have. Features: Stanchions: 35mm Use: All mountain, Enduro Axle: 15x110mm Boost QR axle standard; Bolt-on optional (available separately) Air Spring System: FulFill independent positive & negative chamber system External Adjustments: Positive/negative air-spring pressure, 8-position low-speed compression, 16-position Ramp Control, and rebound Internal Adjustments: Travel (in 5mm increments) Brake Mount: 180mm, post mount Fork Travel/Offset: Multiple options available to select Axle To Crown Length: 27.5" Option with 150mm travel: 542mm; 27.5" Option with 160mm travel: 552mm; 27.5+/29" Option with 150mm travel: 562mm; 27.5+/29" Option with 160mm travel: 572mm Weight: 27.5" Option: 1.88kg; 27.5+/29" Option: 1.95kgTechnologies: ChocoLUXE Internals: ChocoLUXE is a proprietary material utilised in the damper plug, damper seal, damper IFP, and damper support. It’s highly dimensionally stable, meaning that parts made from it are more consistent overall and less susceptible to change with exposure to temperature swings or humidity. It is also extremely low friction. Norglide Bushings: Norglide Bushings from Saint Gobain are metal-reinforced, self-lubricating bushings with a layer of a low friction PTFE compound. They’re exceptionally smooth and durable. Reduced Friction: In addition to part updates, MRP also continued to refine its processes. In whole, these part and process changes have resulted in a 37% reduction in friction compared to first-generation Ribbon forks. FullFill air-spring system with independently adjustable positive and negative air-chambers for greater tunability. New EssenTTial twin-tube, bladder-free damper utilizing a low-pressure IFP. Outcast arch design with forward-facing weight reliefs to mitigate mud build up. PSST pressure-relief valves that quickly and easily bleed off excess pressure in the lowers caused by elevation and temperature changes. “Boost” spacing and 35mm stanchions.Manufacturer’s Part Numbers: FKMRR7151 Black 27.5" 150mm 44mm FKMRR7152 Black 27.5" 160mm 44mm FKMRR7164 Black 29"/27.5"+ 150mm 46mm FKMRR7165 Black 29"/27.5"+ 160mm 46mm Buy MRP Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
