Eric Carter in Collaboration with SR Suntour

Eric Carter, the Californian rider has been testing the new downhill fork from SR Suntour, the newest SR Suntour RUX and SR Suntour Auron, a 200mm and 160mm fork travel. These forks are the most used fork by Eric Carter today, and he shared his impression when he rides with these two forks. Basically, Eric is asked by the brand to join a collaboration and develop these products. And then Eric tested the fork on his custom bike from Hyper, the Carter 650B prototype.

After tested the forks, Eric has an interesting statement about the competition in the high-end suspension technology, with the two main players, FOX and Rockshox. He said that SR Suntour will be able to enter to the competition between them, especially in the World Cup. He also said that SR Suntour is the biggest suspension producer in the world, but the brand needs to make some development and improvements for their products.

This will be interesting to see the competition between these brands to get the people's attention, and let's see what can be done by SR Suntour at the further.
