Final Sea Otter, we acquired a sneak peek at a really massive mission from Push Industries. It appears to have taken slightly longer than deliberate to get it throughout the end line, however their new NINE.ONE inverted suspension fork is lastly right here!
Made in Colorado, it’s considerably suprising to see that the NINE.ONE is a coil-sprung fork that additionally contains user-adjustable journey changes from 140-170mm. Journey could be adjusted in 10mm increments, and should you’re simply altering journey by 10mm you received’t have the change the spring (altering journey greater than 10mm would require a differrent spring to regulate for spring charge). Constructed to be MTB and eMTB suitable, the NINE.ONE has exterior excessive and low velocity compression and exterior low velocity rebound adjustment to make modifications on the path. Appropriate with 27.5″ and 29″ wheels, the fork has tire clearance for as much as 2.6″ tires.
The fork is avaialble beginning at present, and can promote for $2,600.

Take a look at extra particulars beneath from PUSH:
Higher Construction:
With the inverted design comes flexibility and the power to decouple the assorted elements. These freedoms permit for using numerous crown, outer tube, and bushing configurations that may in any other case be comparatively mounted. Utilizing a number of FEA simulation instruments, check tools, and plenty of hours of experience evaluations, PUSH engineers tirelessly analyzed and tweaked every facet of the fork’s higher construction. This included exploring each massive and small changes to crown form and overlap, outer tube diameter and taper, in addition to floating and glued fork bushings. The end result? The NINE.ONE incorporates a uniquely tuned 44mm higher chassis the place will increase in frontal stiffness have been achieved to handle massive sq. impacts with out compromising the torsional stiffness wanted to enhance cornering traction by decreasing entrance finish push from chatter.
Fork Bushings:
Fork bushings have been a major focus in chassis improvement with intensive improvement going into design layouts and materials buildings. Proprietary fork bushings are precision match and individually hand burnished to mating stanchion tubes. The NINE.ONE additionally incorporates a bushing design which retains the bushings submerged in fork oil which supplies fixed and constant lubrication leading to a fork that’s plush, lively, and freed from binding friction even underneath the heaviest breaking hundreds.
Fork Seals:
Every fork options our unique and proprietary ULF fork seals. Longer lasting, higher performing and engineered to cut back hand fatigue by decreasing sliding friction. As with our fork bushings, NINE.ONE fork seals are continuously and constantly lubricated bettering efficiency and growing sturdiness.
Stanchion Tubes:
NINE.ONE forks characteristic 36mm centerless floor and polished stanchion tubes using our confirmed MicroXD micro-finishing hardcoat course of to cut back friction and improve sturdiness.
Axle Lugs:
The axle lugs of the NINE.ONE take an revolutionary method to design. With their bolt-on design, riders can simply change between axle offsets in addition to wheel sizes with out buying a brand new fork. The extraordinarily stiff 38mm clamping space of the lugs aids in each the forks total really feel in addition to harmonic free braking stiffness. The brake facet axle lug additionally options our unique Twin Standoff Direct Mount brake mount system eliminating mounting brackets for 180/185mm in addition to 200/203mm rotor sizes. This characteristic reduces setup time and improves braking stability.
Fork Guards:
Light-weight built-in fork guards present wonderful decrease leg safety and have integration of each the entrance brake home information and conventional low mount fender. The guards are manufactured from a excessive affect polymer materials that gives excessive stiffness with wonderful affect and shatter resistance.
Quiet Coil Spring
From the kings of coil. Have you ever ever seen how incessantly air sprung forks are described as offering “probably the most coil-like really feel”? It’s because coil sprung forks present a extra plush and lively preliminary journey, higher mid-stroke assist, and probably the most constant finish stroke. We made it easy….the NINE.ONE is coil sprung. Higher but, the fork spring meeting sits inside our lubricated “Silent Encompass” chamber permitting for quiet, clean, and upkeep free motion with out using secondary gadgets corresponding to warmth shrink.
Impartial Exterior Bottoming Management
The NINE.ONE additionally options our unique place delicate ABS pneumatic bottoming system. Impartial from the principle coil spring, the ABS unit supplies extra spring assist for the ultimate 10-45mm of wheel journey. The engagement place is robotically adjusted primarily based on base strain. Base strain is adjusted externally with a typical shock pump with really useful pressures between 5-50psi. Moreover, extra aggressive riders can take away the ABS unit and reposition the ABS fundamental piston as a further tuning device.
NINE.ONE Damper
With its pressurized reservoir, Inner Floating Piston (IFP), and huge quantity compression base valve, the elements of the NINE.ONE damper resemble a sophisticated rear shock damper. Designed and engineered particularly for the distinctive traits of the chassis, the damper incorporates a uniquely developed damping attribute that provides new ranges of velocity sensitivity and management. With 28 clicks of each Low and Excessive-Pace compression damping, and 18 clicks of Low-Pace rebound damping adjustment, riders are really in a position to high quality tune simply the correct quantity of efficiency, consolation, and management. Along with the exterior changes, inside tuning of the compression base valve, rebound piston, and mid valve can be found for riders driving at an elite degree.
Person Adjustable Journey
To present riders extra choices, the NINE.ONE incorporates a proprietary journey adjustment system that enables riders to internally regulate the forks journey between 140mm and as much as 170mm in 10mm increments with out the necessity to buy extra components.
Sturdy Building
Throw a punch….it may take it. Not being exceedingly proud of fashionable fork sturdiness, PUSH engineers took a contemporary method to efficiency whereas being constantly targeted on sturdiness. Each part design and materials alternatives have been chosen primarily based on the outcomes they produced after a full season, not simply how they carried out after a contemporary rebuild.
Floating Axle
Reducing friction ends in higher traction. The NINE.ONE’s floating axle design eliminates binding friction attributable to hub width tolerance and variance. With this design, hub preload and fork leg alignment are fully impartial of one another.
Pace Service Function
Whereas common upkeep is important to maintain the NINE.ONE fork working at its most, riders are in a position to take away the forks lubrication fluid and exchange it by way of our outer tube velocity service characteristic. It is a fundamental service that may be accomplished with out eradicating the fork from the bike.
Strain Reduction Valves
That includes a Patent-Pending design, and conveniently positioned on the bottom of the fork crown, our strain aid valves make strain balancing the NINE.ONE a breeze. The valves fully sealed pull-to-release design eliminates the widespread downside of coming into particles and leaking lubricating oil.
Homegrown
Manufactured right here issues. Creating prime quality merchandise manufactured proper right here underneath the roof of our Colorado facility by expert people provides a degree of element that merely can’t be matched. The end result: High quality, Sturdiness, and Efficiency.
Guarantee Reset
A revolutionary suspension guarantee first launched with our ELEVENSIX rear shock, our Guarantee Reset ensures that after each annual service carried out by one in all our Manufacturing unit Approved Service Facilities, you get a full manufacturing unit guarantee reset for an additional 12 months of use. As well as, all PUSH forks and shocks characteristic a totally transferable guarantee.
