    Um, quite a lot of things wrong in this video. Air valve is NOT at the top, that's the volume spacer not the air valve. the air valve is at the bottom of the fork under the black cap. The fork lowers are the same for EXT and STD versions, it's the stations that a longer for the EXT version. Also the travel is adjusted internally, not by air pressure. Sorry to be negative but if you are going to make these videos you need to make sure you know what's what.

    I have this fork on my fat bike. I have the pro standard model. My fat bike is a all year bike. This fork is incredibly stiff and very adjustable. It is a great fork. if you're thinking about adding this fork to your fat bike do it, it will change your fat biking for the better.

      @ixcel83 4 года назад

      It is just as effective as any other high-end mountain bike fork. I am younger myself but I am impressed at the people who ride rigid fat bikes over rough terrain I myself enjoy the extra comfort of the mastadon.

      Pretty sure you need a tapered head tube as well, I think the bottom of the steerer tube on those is 1.5 in opposed to 1 and 1/8
