The Lyrik E1 Select 29in Fork is light on the climbs and ruthless on the descents

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I have been running the Lyrik E1 Select 29in Fork on a dedicated trail bike, and the LinearXL air spring genuinely surprised me. It ramps up through the stroke in a way that feels closer to coil than most air forks I have ridden, and the Delta RC damper took about thirty seconds to dial in on the trail. The low-grab SKF seals have kept things feeling smooth session after session without any extra attention from me."

A good trail fork disappears into the ride, and the RockShox Lyrik E1 Select 29in Fork is built with exactly that in mind. Whether the day starts with a long fireroad grind and ends on chunky singletrack or goes straight into technical descents from the shuttle drop, the Lyrik E1 Select stays composed, predictable, and light enough that it never feels like a liability when the trail tilts upward.

The new LinearXL air spring is the centerpiece of what makes this generation of the Lyrik worth paying attention to. Its tuning delivers a supple feel off the top of the stroke for small bump sensitivity, builds into genuine mid-stroke support, and backs it all up with a fixed bottom-out system that prevents harsh end-stroke surprises when things get rowdy. The result is a ride quality that many riders describe as coil-like without any of the weight penalty that comes with an actual coil spring. The new Delta RC damper pairs with it cleanly, offering independent low-speed compression and rebound adjustments through intuitive external controls that make trailside tuning fast and straightforward. Low-grab SKF wiper seals and Maxima 920 blended 15w oil reduce friction throughout the system, keeping the fork feeling fresh through long seasons of hard riding.

Lyrik Series

Any Trail. Any Time.

Jack of all trades, master of confidence.

The Essentials Of Versatility

Stay Composed

Lyrik’s balanced chassis delivers in both directions, keeping riders fresh and in control.

Enable The Air Spring

LinearXL is a whole fork approach to air spring design, delivering predictable position-sensitive control.

The Perfect Setup Is Personal

The all-new Lyrik features adjusters that visibly indicate settings and make fine-tuning simple and intuitive.

Put A Lyrik On It

Versatility Is Predictability

LinearXL provides a position-sensitive linear curve. That means as you move through the travel, the rate at which the fork increases force never changes—delivering predictability.

Independent Bottom Out Control

Adjustable Bottom Out (ABO) lets you dial in exactly how much bottom-out support you want, while keeping the rest of the stroke consistent and predictable.

Linear XL AirAnnex

The AirAnnex on Lyrik’s lower leg increases the lower leg air volume, which reduces the air-spring progressivity and speed-sensitivity inherent to traditional lower leg designs.

Stanchions That Breathe

Strategically placed breather holes in the stanchions allow for the lower leg air volume to increase as the fork goes through its travel.

Charger 3.2: Speed Sensitive & Silent

Re-tuned for the unique position-sensitivity of LinearXL, Charger 3.2 delivers speed-sensitive control with fully independent High Speed and Low Speed Compression damping.

Exactly The Sweet Spot

DH-Level Stiffness

TorqueCap dropouts give Lyrik torsional stiffness on par with a 20mm downhill axle. All from a standard, lightweight 15mm Maxle. For an improvement in precision and steering response riders absolutely feel.

A Chassis For Serious Versatility

Lightweight without forgetting its long-travel roots, designed to make easy work of the whole mountain. Lyrik’s chassis features a fully re-engineered, buttressed lower leg built to handle every hit, at a weight that’s not a chore to pedal.

ButterWagonTech

ButterWagonTech is a proprietary matrix of divots on Lyrik stanchions that works to carry (or ‘wagon’) fresh layers of our exclusive, high-density Maxima oil to the bushings with every millimeter of travel. Unparalleled in design and function, ButterWagonTech sets a new benchmark for sensitivity.

ButterCups Vibration Reduction

ButterCups effectively isolate the air spring and damper shafts from chatter, cutting high-frequency vibration by up to 20%. Riders feel the difference, whether striving for a PR or tackling an all-day epic. Less arm pump. Less hand fatigue. More fun all day.

Exclusive Seals for Sensitivity

Most wiper seals deflect into the upper tube when the lower leg pressurizes, creating more friction. To solve for this, we worked with SKF to develop an exclusive design that cleans the dirt without grabbing the upper tube, increasing sensitivity deep in the travel.
