If you really want to Harness
the Gnarness of the Mojo HD3
The DPS shock with EVOL sleeve which is
standard on the HD3 works extremely well
for most riders.
We have worked closely with Fox to
develop custom tunes for the HD3 and
Ripley. Some people want to go bigger,
so we have some options:
Cane Creek DBinline
Riders who need a more aggressive or
adjustable shock can instead order a
Cane Creek DBinline for the HD3 or
the Ripley. The DBinline provides an
extremely wide range of tuning options,
with individually adjustable low-speed
compression, high-speed compression,
low-speed rebound and high-speed
rebound. We have worked extensively with
Cane Creek on these shocks, and have
developed base tunes as a starting point
to get your own bike dialed. The base
tunes for DBinlines on the Ripleys and HD3
can be found on
page 41.
REAR SHOCK SETUP
REAR SHOCK SETUP
Fox Float X2
Fox fires yet another across the bow with
the new for 2016 Float X2. If you ride
aggressively and like a shock with a lot
of tuning options, the X2 is a good choice
for you.
Recommended Settings
Use your air spring pressure in the table
on the right to find the suggested starting
Rod Valve System (RVS) damper settings
for your shock.
Turn all four damper adjusters to the
closed position
(full clockwise)
until
they stop. Then back them out
(counter-
clockwise)
to the number of clicks shown
in the table on the right.
Custom Tuning
If none of these shocks suit your fancy,
you can venture out on you own into the
world of custom shock procurement. The
HD3 rides best with a low compression/
medium rebound tune and very progressive
spring rate.
Updating the Original Ripley Suspension
If you wish to update your first generation Ripley to the excellent new Float DPS
and Float 34, here are the part numbers you will need to order. Note, we are
not allowed to sell Fox suspension other than bolted onto a bike.

The Ripley Float DPS shock spec is quite
different from Fox’s aftermarket offering in
that size. So, you’d need to buy the shock
listed on the line above… Then buy an
EVOL air sleeve separately and have
the shock revalved to light compression
damping. It’s possible but adds rework
cost on top of purchasing the shock itself.
Again, we’re not allowed to sell you the
shock by itself.
