Rockshox Lyrik Ultimate 29”

All-Mountain Performance Without the Extra Weight

The RockShox Lyrik Ultimate Charger 3.2 RC2 is built for riders who want serious descending capability without turning their trail bike into a full-blown downhill machine. Combining a stiff 35mm chassis with the latest Charger 3.2 RC2 damper and Linear XL air spring, the Lyrik Ultimate delivers a controlled, supportive ride that’s ready for everything from technical singletrack to aggressive all-mountain terrain.

Light enough for big days in the saddle and capable enough for demanding descents, the Lyrik Ultimate strikes an ideal balance between efficiency, precision, and confidence.

Charger 3.2 RC2 Damper

The Charger 3.2 RC2 damper provides independent high-speed compression, low-speed compression, and rebound adjustment, allowing riders to fine-tune suspension performance to their terrain and riding style.

Updated compression and rebound tuning works alongside the Linear XL air spring to provide a smooth, controlled ride with excellent support when the trail gets fast and rough.

Numbered compression controls make adjustments easy and repeatable, allowing you to quickly find—and return to—your preferred settings.

Linear XL Air Spring

RockShox’s Linear XL air spring is engineered to deliver a smooth, predictable feel throughout the entire stroke.

Supple initial travel helps maintain traction over roots, rocks, and trail chatter, while strong mid-stroke support keeps the bike composed through corners, compressions, and technical terrain.

An Externally Adjustable Bottom Out (ABO) system provides additional control at the end of the stroke, allowing riders to fine-tune bottom-out resistance for bigger hits and aggressive riding.

ButterCups Technology

RockShox ButterCups help isolate high-frequency vibrations before they travel through the fork and into the rider’s hands and arms.

By reducing trail chatter, ButterCups help improve comfort and control while reducing fatigue during long, rough descents.

ButterWagonTech

Exclusive to RockShox Ultimate-level forks, ButterWagonTech maintains a consistent supply of lubrication at the bushings to help reduce friction and keep the fork operating smoothly throughout its service interval.

Less friction means smoother suspension movement, better sensitivity, and more consistent performance ride after ride.

Stiff, Precise Lyrik Chassis

The Lyrik’s 35mm tapered-wall aluminum stanchions provide an excellent balance of stiffness and weight for aggressive trail and all-mountain riding.

A wider crown and reinforced lower-leg arch increase chassis stiffness for precise steering and predictable handling under load, while careful machining removes unnecessary material to keep overall weight under control.

Who Is It For?

The RockShox Lyrik Ultimate is ideal for the rider who wants more capability than a lightweight trail fork without stepping all the way up to a heavier enduro platform.

It’s right at home on aggressive trail and all-mountain bikes where climbing efficiency still matters, but descending performance can’t be compromised.

From long backcountry rides to steep technical descents and hard-charging trail laps, the Lyrik Ultimate delivers the support, control, and precision to push your bike—and your riding—further.
