Description

Details

The Luftkappe from Vorsprung Suspension increases negative air volume in RockShox Pike, Lyrik & Yari forks.  This greatly improves the two main issues with air springs: a high starting preload and a weak mid-stroke.  The extra negative volume lowers starting preload to zero, creating a pneumatic top-out effect.  The reduced initial spring rate allows higher pressure for better mid stroke support while improving small bump sensitivity.

Easy fitment check:
Take out the air-cap and look down inside.  If you have a bolt head in the middle of the air piston then you can fit the Luftkappe.  If you see a moulded plastic cap with no silver bolt then you have debonair and cannot fit the Luftkappe.
