Earlier this year Ohlins signed as the suspension sponsor for the Team BMC XC race team which sparked speculation that the brand was developing suspension dedicated to cross-country. Ohlins have now officially launched the RXC34 m.1 fork which comes with either a carbon or alloy crown and two TXCAir shocks.
Ohlins comes from a racing heritage, whether it's motorsport or suspension forks and rear shocks for gravity mountain biking, it is a brand with a history of producing performance suspension. Having had a lot of success in downhill being ridden by the likes of current World Champ Loic Bruni, it was only a matter of time before the Swedish brand moved from downhill and enduro racing to enter the world of cross-country. Ohlin's goal is to win races and cross-country presents a unique opportunity for them to be involved with the next Olympics, which will take place in Paris in 2024.
