Fuel EXe Fuel EXe Suspension Modifications/Questions

Hello,

I have a Fuel EXe 8 XT with the Fox 36 Rhythm fork, I've found a deal on 2022 Fox 36 Performance Elite 160mm fork with the Grip2 damper brand new from a store clearing inventory for 360 euros. I know this is a good deal but for a rider that isn't that advanced do you think I will notice the performance difference between the Grip and Grip2 dampers?

I had already bought the bleeder valves and a 160mm airshaft for about 150 euros for my 36 Rhythm fork but have not installed them yet before I found this deal on the performance elite fork so I think I can sell my fork for about 250 euros which give me a Grip2 damper for about 150 euros when shipping is included

Are now running a 160mm Fox 36 Performance Elite, removed the travel reducers in the Float X shock, added the compression knob to the shock and a bigger volume spacer in the shock.

Did you ever hit the frame with the reservoir with the travel reducers removed? I have bought the m3x8mm screws to remove the spacers and will also add the compression knob to my Float x on my size L alloy exe

hey, on my size medium, no I did not, but I also ran it in "high" mode while in mullet to keep the BB up. I believe it was fine in 29er mode as well, no issues.
