Dual Air Tuning
If you like to tweak and fiddle with your suspension, the Selva is the most adjustable fork out there. The Selva R is the dual air spring version which uses a a separate positive and negative spring, similar to those of of the Helm II and EXA Era - as opposed to Rock Shox and Fox that use a check valve to equalise the positive and negative air springs. You can also swap out the compression cartridge (very easily) to 7 different tunes - 2 valves are included with all forks. Say you want your fork to be firm and progressive on a race weekend but a little more comfort for those weekday rides, it takes no more than 10mins and simple tools to switch out the CTS -it's like getting a re-shim at home.
Out of the box it has High and Low speed compression adjustment and rebound and the NeoPos volume spacers that have add a more dynamic feel to air spring compared to solid tokens. The travel can be adjusted by removing the air spring and clipping on the air shaft spacers to alter the travel.
The lack of friction and small bump sensitivity is something you will notice right away with the Selva, it's floating IFP allows for the chassis to flex without interfering with the air piston which causes stiction and extra wear. If you are one to constantly change settings on your fork, the Selva will almost certainly find the magic combination for you
The 2Air cartridge offers loads of adjustability and if you cannot get your perfect feeling fork with this - then something is wrong. The Main chamber controls the support, including mid-stroke and bottom out resistance. The 2nd chamber controls the sensitivity of the first part of the travel - more pressures fights the larger main chamber offering customised feel to how much sensitivity you want. The 2Air does take a bit more time to setup - you'll have to empty the negative chamber first before adding the positive air - Important to note if you check your fork pressure before every ride!
