Vorsprung on the Telum, Rapid Revalve, Shock Tuning & Mor...

What this episode covers

When we last sat down with Steve Mathews from Vorsprung, he shared a lot of the high-level details of their then-unreleased Telum shock. But he needed to keep some of the most interesting details under wraps — until now. So we sat back down with Steve to get the full rundown — first and foremost, how the Telum’s novel Rapid Revalve system (which is meant to make re-valving the shock take only a few minutes) works. And Steve shares a lot of good info on the Telum more broadly, his approach to suspension tuning, and a whole lot more.RELATED LINKS:BLISTER+ MembershipThis Week’s Gear GiveawayTOPICS & TIMES:Re-introducing the TelumDamper design (2:10)The Rapid Revalve system (7:19)How Rapid Revalve differs from standard adjusters (14:01)The Tuning Hub (23:24)Damping curves & what Rapid Revalve can (and can’t) do (31:50)“Placebo dials” & Steve’s tuning philosophy (35:54)Hydraulic bottom-out & changing shock stroke (41:00)Spherical bearings (44:59)CHECK OUT OUR OTHER PODCASTS:Blister CinematicCRAFTEDGEAR:30Blister PodcastOff The Couch Hosted on Acast.
