SPV (Stable Platform Valve) Evolve Damping
Featured on Dorado, Sherman, Nixon, Minute, Black and Skareb forks.
SPV Evolve is a refinement of the revolutionary Stable Platform Valve damping system, allowing our 2005 forks to be more responsive to smaller impacts and have an increased setup pressure range, all while delivering platform for improved climbing efficiency and more controlled cornering.
Where lesser systems suffer compression spikes or harsh transitions from a locked out to an open state, SPV Evolve is the only damping system that improves your bike's handling characteristics while climbing and descending.
