RockShox has updated the SID World Cup for 2010 shedding 110 grams (on the 2009 model). The crown and steerer are now a hollow one-piece carbon fibre composition. The fork lowers are now full magnesium compared to the magnesium and carbon fibre combination found in the 2009 version. The all-magnesium lowers continue to feature Power Bulges, which increase stiffness and bushing durability. The 2010 SID WC now weighs 1400 grams, still maintaining the incredible steering precision the SID is
known for.
The BlackBox Technology carbon crown and steerer attributes, pertaining to strength and stiffness, have been tested in our labs and in the World Cup race arena since 2008. The result is a light chassis that passes the stringent CEN test standards. A year of testing, developing and racing this new carbon crown and steerer has established the next evolution of the SID which remains the king of XC racing.
SID World Cup continues to employ the BlackBox Motion Control damper and Dual Air spring system for vast tunability and ease of service. PushLoc remote lockout actuation is included.
