    Wouldnt be surprised if Ohlins are 'prerecording' variable settings with telemetry in practice runs and then playing those variables back during race runs- avoiding any need for button pressing. Something along those lines anyhow

      Been arguing with a buddy for a while on this. I was thinking they pass beacons on the course that instruct it to switch damping profiles. He said they could do it real easily with a geo fence.
      I'm thinking now it's just simple buttons and bluetooth though. Real simple 3 buttons for 3 different settings profiles.
      3 lights on the top cap to confirm what you're on.

      @@CoderShare Cba looking for any footage now - But hasnt it been spotted in pov ride videos from Loic that he presses them a couple of times on a run? Im sure it could make it automatically also, but if that reads a few meters wrong, it could go quite bad I would imagine. It working as some form of simpler telemetry or at least data collection tool for all brands is most likely certain. Having it collect every single run, even competition runs would be a nice benefit
      Anyways, knowing how consumer flight attendant works on other bikes, we can probably pretty safely assume its just a compression setting on the fly. Mid setting for fast stuff, fully open for rough, and quite firm in flat takeoffs/ramps up to jumps. And as the already available flight attendant, most likely has a free fall sensor so it fully unlocks in the air. And this goes for rockshox/fox/öhlins. Would be cool with something super unique that no one has thought about before, but most likely its probably a pretty boring just compression switch on the fly.

    UCI needs to get on top of this. A few presets on the suspension that the rider can manually select is fine, but no adaptive suspension.

    • @Ganiscol
      @Ganiscol 27 дней назад

      Concept bits and pieces. Its not that new I think, FOX' semi circulating GRIP damper apparently comes from MX forks. You know, the part where the damper oil is also the lube oil in the right stanchion that gets sucked through the sealhead into the damper cartridge and eventually bleeds out at the top along with any air that inevitably gets into every closed cartridge - a self bleeding damper, so to speak.
      Adjusting damping settings on the fly as the track and rider requires it, is only a logical step for any fork and shock manufacturer. But I think Jordi is right when he says the ideal would be a means to have this done automatically (within reasonable limits and with proper thresholds to not make it go bonkers if the track changes rapidly) as opposed to pushing buttons, which is probably what happens in Moto GP and definitely in Formula 1.

      Been saying it for a while. Shocks are mapped. Valve settings automatically switch at a different section of the track based on what they determine during practice. Flat section...damping switches. Shelves and deep holes. Telemetry synced to a GPS or other elevation/distance detection device.

      World Cup DH riders are every bit the athlete that MotoGP riders are. So I see no disconnect. No one can afford a MotoGP bike; no one can afford a Spesh Future Demo.
