Have you ever used these? (Hygear)

[sheetwright]

I am eying up these from Hygear to help with the typical issues of the fox floats on the Nytro when it comes to studder bumps and cornering. Has anyone used these? Do you htink they offer more then muffinworks? I had muffins years ago, and switched to GYT clickers. I want to keep th eFox just in case I decide I want to go with a skinz front end in the future. http://www.hygearsuspension.com/Product ... ntrol.html Does anyone else make something like this besides these two companies? I going to have the shocks revalved front and back for my weight and riding along with somehting like this to help. Just looking to see if it was worth the steep price. Thanks for the help

I use a similar product on my Fox Float 2's They do keep the ride smooth while being capable of using more air for better bump and bottom-out control. I like them, great upgrade for the money.

What brand are you running?

I would try this upgrade from Fox. Turns your Float 1 or 2's into Evolves. The advantage to this kit over a Hygear, Muffinworks, or any other additional can set up is the size of the orfice between the main air chamber and the extra volume canister.The Fox upgrade has a larger orfice and can flow more air. Fox sells the kit for only $25.00 and is a better way to go. IMO

Since I have the regular floats they would cost me $415 from Fox to have them turn them into Evol styles. Which would be about the same from Hygear if they add their chamber, the internal spacer, and the anti-bottoming to the float. What is interesting is they are coming out with this. Saw it on their facebook page. It is their upper a-arm kit which is adjustable. The price also sounds interesting also.... Their tech said some rear parts are being worked on also, but doesn't know if they will be ready yet for snow time. There is a waiting list for the front parts he said

hygear air control

I have a set of the hygear air control chambers that came off my fox float X that was on my 2010 rtx se I will sell them to you for a reduced price. I am still using the floats in a 42" skins front end but I couldnt use the extra air chambers, I had clearance issues withe the a-arms with the x shocks but if you are using regular floats u could still use chambers with skins a- arms.

The issue in the studders is likely valving, you really need to get that dialed first. Cornering, what's the problem?

The Nytro stance is famous fro ski lift in the corners. I may be asking to much, but I want a flatter, high speed cornering, bump machine. Kind of why JRE, Skinz, z-bros, and now Hygear have been messing with the front end geometry or stance.

i used nextech resi's on my floats for my attak. They help out big time in the stutters. The increase of air volume lets the shock work more linear thru its travel. You can also run lower air pressure for a better ride and lower stance. Fett cans are to small IMHO.

If you still have these, how much shipped to Canada?
