You need to get some stickers and add them when the link is installed.

Just make sure you put them the right way up

Has anyone here got or used flight attendant?

Somebody else was asking that just the other day - or was it Live valve? ... crickets.

I think the recent question was Live Valve. Reminds, me, I thought about replying to that but didn't get around to it. Might dig it up.

 

[The Duckmeister]

Anyone used Fox Live Valve? Any thoughts? Great, good, neutral, bad, junk?

I don't know about later versions, but the original one was utter shit, huge failure rate. The shop I was in at the time sold a small number of bikes with it. 100% failure rate.

EDIT: Very good while it worked, the self adjusting damping was almost undetectable, it just felt "right" for any given situation. But when it inevitably shat itself, you knew about it - essentially open shocks all the way!

I'm sure I heard in passing on a recent Pinkbike podcast that Flight Attendant is excellent now.

Marketing is also excellent

Thanks. It, Live Valve, is on a 2020 bike I bought. I have found a way to get it off and preserve the fork and shock. Will require a new fork damper though.

Should be a pretty simple damper swap; the LVs use the same fork chassis as manual models, and they're all cartridge dampers, so get the appropriate size & it's a direct swap.

Thought so. Good, detailed vid on the swap from Lost Co in Bellingham
