Designed for riders who cover lots of ground—FAST. The new fork replaces the original RXF34 and offers a short-travel 120-130mm setup optimized for lightweight 29er trail bikes. Weighing in at just 1698g the fork boasts a brand new air spring and damper adapted for the demands of the emerging riding style while still carrying all the hallmarks of Öhlins’ race-proven performance suspension seen from its long-travel single-crown cousins—the RXF36 m.2 & RXF38 m.2. The RXF34 m.2 uses the newly designed OTX18 damper which purpose-built for lightweight trail bikes. The new damper is paired with a robust yet lightweight air spring that features a positive and self-adjusting negative chamber. With a flex pattern tailored for lightweight trail riding the RXF34 m.2’s super-stiff chassis delivers point-and-shoot precision steering.
OTX18 damper shares several key components with its bigger TTX18 brother but weighs 27% less and is optimized for faster and more fluid trail riding striking the optimal balance between traction control weight and stiffnessTrail-optimized OTX18 damper offers impressive adjustability for fine-tuning with fifteen clicks of low-speed compression and rebound adjustment alongside three for tweaks to high-speed compressionLightweight air spring features a positive chamber that allows riders to tune the spring curve according to their needs using Öhlins’ easy-to-use volume spacer systemNegative chamber of the lightweight air spring has been designed for fast trail riding and provides a plush initial feel and superb small bump sensitivity while the spring’s surface and seals also minimize friction and breakaway force to enhance the fork’s smooth ride feelRace-proven chassis design has been achieved via a closed-end outer tube design to increase stiffness impact resistance and the volume of the lower legs to give the rider more power to fine-tune performance to their liking for greater confidence and control15mm x 110mm boost floating thru-axle axle design to minimize frictioneMTB approved
