Any one have experience with running an MRP coil fork

I ride , trail , bike park and batch , if you know what they are you know what they are , so for trail may be fine , but for the burly stuff and big hits maybe not

Thanks,

Since you have the 36 Rhythm have you considered the Marzocchi coil swap kit which is designed to be compatible with your fork? I have the 36 Marz Z1 coil fork, and it's awesome.

I've been riding with a Vorsprung Smashpot coil conversion for over a year on two seperate bikes and I don't think I'll go back to air anytime soon.
The levels of grip and feel compared to my old (but new) fox 36 are just mad. you really start to push the limits of what is sensible! You will change your riding style because you can get away with so much.

Downsides are its heavier, Its an ebike, who cares. I don't
Being in-between spring rates, frustrating more than a huge problem
More difficult to adjust than air, although not impossible. My lyrik Ultimate fork conversion came with two springs.

For me all of this is outweighed by the amazing feeling you get from the front end. Not for everyone but I'm so glad i took the plunge and tried it.
