Rockshox Lyrik Ultimate 2023 Fork

Faster. Stronger. Ruthlessly efficient. The new Lyrik is up for anything and down for it all. The most versatile fork
in our lineup features a hyper-focused new chassis that’s lighter while still critically stiff to deliver on Lyrik’s
legendary performance and party attitude. Lyrik Ultimate packs an orchestra of industry-leading tech like the new
Charger 3 damper, ButterCup technology, and the new DebonAir+ air spring. Let Lyrik sing with a fresh signature
colorway we call “Heavy Meadow”, inspired by our favorite alpine sufferfests. The new Lyrik Ultimate is here. 

Technology

SKF Seals

Everyone loves a good collaboration, which is why we’ve been working with SKF, the world’s highest-performance seal
manufacturer, for over 5 years. Together we’ll provide ultra-low friction wiper seals, less fatigue, and unmatched
suspension feel, all while keeping the dirt where it belongs- because no one wants dirt in there.

Pressure Relief Valves

Pressure Relief Valves eliminate unwanted air pressure build up in the lower leg caused by variations in altitude or
temperature. With the press of a button or two, Pressure Relief Valves restore the lower leg balance for optimum
sensitivity and a premium fork feel.

ButterCups

Low amplitude, vibration reducing material pucks… but we like to call them ButterCups. ButterCups block 20% of
unwanted “trail chatter” before it reaches your hands. The gold housings on the end of the damper and air spring
hold two rubber pucks that absorb the high frequency vibrations before they travel through the fork and into the
handlebar. ButterCups reduce overall hand and arm fatigue and will leave you feeling fresh with more control over
the trail.

DebonAir+

DebonAir+ is built to strike the perfect balance of what riders really want: butter-like small bump feel, increased
support throughout the travel, and higher overall ride height for more confidence when things get steep.

Charger 3

Scrap everything and start from scratch. It took a fresh set of eyes to produce what became the Charger 3 damper.
Let’s see what we can do, where we can go. The result gives way to a new era of riding, where the decision between
adding more damping and sacrificing your hands to a harsh ride doesn’t exist.

Maxima Plush Dynamic Suspension Lube

Maxima Plush Dynamic Suspension Lube reduces friction, lasts longer, and enhances suspension performance ride after
ride.

Features

• 35mm chassis with a focused all-mountain mindset – satisfyingly stiff, efficient, and designed to eliminate as
  much weight as possible.
• Already proving itself on the podium with multiple wins during the 2021 season, Charger 3 is ready to meet the
  masses. Charger 3 features an all-new Internal Floating Piston (IFP) design that offers more consistency through
  the stroke and truly independent adjustments that reduce harshness and increase control without any
  “cross-talk”. Featuring High Speed Compression, Low Speed Compression, and a revamped Low Speed Rebound, every
  click is exact and meaningful. Dial in your perfect ride experience without a second guess. No sacrifices and no
  hesitation. This is Charger 3.
• ButterCups block 20% of high frequency “trail chatter”. Limiting these vibrations massively reduces hand and arm
  fatigue leaving you feeling fresh with more control.
• DebonAir+ air spring is built to strike the perfect balance of what riders really want: a butterlike small bump
  feel, increased air volume to add support throughout the travel, and higher overall ride height for more
  confidence when things get steep.
• Ultimate Bushing Package maximizes bushing overlap, reducing friction and creating the smoothest ride possible.
• Pressure Relief Valves eliminate unwanted air pressure build-up in the lower leg caused by variations in
  altitude or temperature. With the press of a button, Pressure Relief Valves restore that premium fork feel.
• Maxima Plush Dynamic Suspension Lube reduces friction, lasts longer, and enhances suspension performance ride
  after ride.
• Bolt-in torque cap adapters now included for use with standard hub end caps.
• Lightweight machined and anodized crown for premium looks and durability.
• Ultra-low friction SKF wiper seals provide long lasting fork performance and improve overall suspension feel
• RockShox premium short fender compatibility.
• Maxima Plush damping fluid reduces friction and silences damper noise.
