Developing a leaf spring midvalve for WP Cone Valve / XACT Pro 7548 Forks
Рет қаралды 1,364
7 ай бұрынRide JBI loves tuning suspension and trying new things. KYB pioneered the Leaf Spring midvalve many years ago and is now a stock feature for all of their KYB SSS forks. WP has since adapted this style of midvalve into the WP XACT 48 air forks in 2020, something Ride JBI has been doing since 2017. And most recently WP is using a leaf spring midvalve in the new Xplor Closed Cartridge fork on the 2024 KTM Off-road models. Ride JBI has been experimenting and developing a leaf spring midvalve for the WP Cone Valve / XACT Pro 7548 Forks. Ride JBI has had lots of success with the WP Cone Valve configurations and will continue using them. This JBI WP Titanium Leaf Spring will be another option and offering from Ride JBI.
Why?!?
Because it is great to have options and learn the possibilities available for building competitively performing suspension.

Always interesting to hear the philosophy behind the process. I doubt the average customer understands the thousands of hours it has taken to get to this point yet you still have to compete with the snake oil merchants. Keep up the good work.

thanks for the sharing the video, good to see the conevalve setup and the leaf spring conversion. I have dal soggio spheres in my 500 desert racing bike, i do all my own shim stacks in both the forks and shock. I have searched long and hard looking for a kit to change the ds spheres from a comp midvalve spring/checkvalve arrangement to either cone or leaf spring config, would you know if this has been done, or if there is a off the shelf set of leaf spring cup and shims i could make work? thanks

I think kyb style tuning will be coming shortly to ktm, with chase not wanting to run wp internals and people being fired and what not. Just gimme a 4 port piston in my shock and forks lol.

This looks really good I bet it's going to work great

I need a setting on my 2023 cone valves for off road. They do great for g outs but small bump sensitivity just isn’t there. You guys can use mine for testing
