THE BEST JUST GOT BETTER!

Continuing to refine the already best in class, the ERA V2.1 fork uses our HS3, hybrid air spring. Two positive air chambers work with one, high volume self activating negative air chamber. Combined with a high-volume damper cartridge this system offers incredible tuning capability and sets a new level for support in a suspension fork. The Era V2.1 introduces features and upgrades that aims to improve the experience, safety and performance of its' predecessors. 

At its core the Era V2.1 has the same configuration that made Era famous and appreciated: HS3 system, robust anti-creak crown, phenomenal mid stroke support,  excellent stiffness and performance.
The Era V2.1 fork features a magnesium lower design that makes them lighter and load-optimized and it’s made possible by utilizing a specific production process called Thixomolding.

WHAT'S NEW

• Increase in negative chamber volume of HS3 Spring system for improved small bump and top out characteristics. 
• New DU Bushing Material for improved small bump and reduced dynamic friction.
• Expanded damper tune options to dial in the perfect ride for every level and type of rider. 

Improvements are addressed to increase sensitivity, smoothness, lubrication and safety like the improved end-stroke devices for the HS3 system, the top up bump rubber and titanium plate that reduces noise on ++ chamber or the new DU design that grants better lubrication.
HS3 is focused on mid-stroke support around the dynamic sag position while offering amazing sensitivity and bottom out protection. The air spring is complemented by an integrated coil spring to create a frictionless transition to sliding movement of the air shaft and a highly responsive fork giving the best grip to the front wheel/tire.

We looked at everything that needed a low friction solution to improve smoothness and sensitivity, that took us to our motorsport heritage:
Developed though our research and development program for World Rally Championship our new DU bushing material used in the magnesium Lower are sized to a defined tolerances for each fork assembly and works in harmony with our dedicated EXT oil and guarantees zero stiction and super low dynamic friction properties even when combined with high side loads. ERA V2.1 adopts an innovative Floating internal shaft guide in the damper cartridge using a Superfinish shaft to minimize friction to the lowest possible level.
EXT high-volume cartridge uses a high flow piston to generate control for your bike, the ERA V2 .1 is the ultimate performance upgrade for your bike and your riding. Like all EXT products the ERA V2 offers a fully tunable fork with a useable damping range for each rider and riding style.
Our new cartridge also introduces a new Bump valve design (HDRV – High Dynamic Response Valve) with 2 different shim stack for mid and high speed and an internal Floating Piston guided piston combined with a bespoke thrust bearing to enhance fast response and guidance.
