RockShox Flight Attendant: Our Development Story 

Director: "Remember to crop in on those interview shots". Editor: "NO!"

Let’s hope Specialized dumps the brain for this

Can’t wait to ride this in 2024, in the mean time do you guys have any 12 speed chains? 😂

Pretty cool that the terminal screens actually seem to show your engineers interacting with the product and not just canned stock footage. :)

Love this! This is the thing I always admire about SRAM... pushing the envelope on what can be done for the bicycle riding experience!

this is amazing you guys are changing the game with this suspension its truly amazing would love to try this

Proud of you, Joe!

I just hope that this 'computerized' suspension system will not have problem(s) akin to the MCAS of the Boeing 737-Max!

This is absolutely amazing !

this is so cool! cant believe stuff like this exists/is coming in the future

So in the end this kind of technology also entered the world of MTB bicycles. Well, I really did imagine that one day bicycles would have advanced technology like this Rockshox flight attendant, but what I never thought before was, it only took 20 years or less; for this kind of technology in bicycles, to experience a quantum leap like this. It's hard to believe, that 15-20 years ago bicycles were still simple technology that relied on wires and simple mechanical systems, but now the technology installed is on the same level as fly-by-wire or drive-by-wire in airplanes or in airplanes. car motorcycle. Recent technological developments in bicycle world have been terrifying.

This is simply the coolest and functional stuff that I saw in MTB in years! What incredible step into the future! Congratulations, RockShox!

Outstanding, looks like a lot of work has gone into this. Interesting to see where this goes in the future. Curious to know if you ever tried having sensors in the axles themselves?

Congratulations and very well done!! Your hard work HAS paid off. 👍

I am so freaking stoked :D

These guys and girls have only just started - innovation by a bunch of awesome people 👏🏻

wow this is gonna be the future. I cant wait :)

A technology so advance so cool so revolutionary that it change how we ride. I dream that in the future i might able to afford it.

What if the way I like the feel of my suspension is not what you coded it to feel like, will be interesting to see if it can be changed via an app etc. 4 of us have the same bike and all our settings are completely different.

Will these be standalone components we can add to existing fork/shocks? or will I need all new suspension?

Hot stuff, well done RS 😎

Other than this being wireless, what are the differences compared to the Ei system that was running a few years ago on Lapierre and Haibike, using RS?

How much? Can the fork and shock be functional independently? For example, I doubt the rear shock with module and battery will fit my Antidote Carbonjack, so can I run the fork alone?

Ok this looks awesome

Would there be the damper for the SCOTT RANSOM?

Big question! Does it need a charge as my build does not allow easy access to rear shock

Amazing

This is awesome work by the SRAM team. I've often thought....why don't the bike sus companies replicate or enhance what's going on in the automotive suspension landscape like Magnetic Ride Control (or similar systems for dynamic dampening control)....this to me seems to be their application of that to the bike world. Should be interesting.

Sounds great just have to wait on the Flight Attendant Upgrade Kit, It wouldn’t be eco friendly to ditch my new bike with ZEB and SuperDelux on.

Looks Like a session

When is the wireless brakes coming out. I’m running the axs rear derailleur and reverb post now. Gonna have to now swap out my front and rear shock. Or when you guys going to make heated handlebar grips lol I’m ready for whatever you guys got

Best info today

🔥🔥🔥

Future of mountain bycycle riding is really moving forwads with decent step. Creating beast, comfort, and if I imagine it merging with e-mtb bikes....

would you have flight attendant for a front suspension only bike? if so will it be tailored for that?

i saw there is a upgrade kit for the cannyon spectral on 2023.... shouldnt this also work for other bikes if the suspensions fit?

I'm saving as much money as possible over the next few years so I can shell out for a top of the line bike with all this AXS bling on it as standard. By then all the bugs should be ironed out. Unfortunately, I'll be a very old man by the time I can afford it. Now I regret not becoming a Dentist.

Will this be released as an upgrade for existing fork and shocks in the same way you can upgrade your internals

thats Pretty smart

Is it going to show if you should take out or add more air Hi

Only 14,000$ can’t wait to pick mine up!!!!!!

So when are we getting wireless brakes then?

So…how is this different from Fox live valve?

Very interesting. I wonder if Fox is working on something like this. Assuming they must have known about this...

Now you need an electrical engineer too service your fork... Probably still cheaper then my local bike shop I guess..

So cool if you ever need a demo test hit me up I’ll be able to do the average guys example of this

Amazing system. Lets compare side by side w analog system.

Damn, look at all the nice hardware I can't afford 😭

I want to add this on my fox 38 and fox dx2 pleasee

Could this be the turning point in mtb?

Also the dropper post should have such kind of tech..

Imagine if a processor freezes and you go OTB AT 30MPH as your rebound hasn't adjusted as you expected it... Scary shit

ZEB addon please! Thank you.

Wonderful time for put electronics on a bike, planetary shortage of every single raw material and components.

Full Axis bikes need 7 batteries?

1:45 I'm thinking FACEBOOK 🤔 🤣

Noice

As I understand it, this system defaults to ‘open’ when descending. (Please correct me if I am wrong.) So it really only changes the way your suspension behaves while climbing or on flat terrain. If this is the case, then please convince me this isn’t a crutch for poorly-calibrated suspension. Because I simply don’t understand the hubbub. (AND i am totally willing to eat my words.) Maybe it will ‘wow’ someone who’s either been away from bikes for 20 years, or it’s a cash grab for the share of the market that simply buys the most expensive stuff because they can. I’m not a curmudgeonly internet warrior - I’ve been riding since the late 80s, I get out 2-3x a week, and I am on a ‘21 Slash with premium suspension bits. I’m no pro but I’m no slouch either, and I simply don’t understand the value of this product. I have no problem adjusting my shock compression with the manual lever on the shock body, and my Lyrik is set up to work great for the conditions I have here in Bellingham. Flight attendant is a total head scratcher.

*white noise coming from HUD helmet speakers* attention, the sram control modul registered an illegal trail entrance, your systems will be shut down enjoy the rest of your ride

What’s an e bike with this tech on it going to cost, 15k? Or more..

Next they are going to make wireless brakes

„Plug in your batteries and hop on your bike and start riding” You forgot about „pay us 3.000$ or more”

Charge your batteries for your phone/GoPro/seat post/fork/derailleur check, ok let’s go riding now 😔

Isn’t it supposed to be called “Ride Attendant”? :)

Add solar charging to it so you don’t have to charge so much

This is sick. When are we seeing a Reverb AXS that goes down on its own, without having to put your body weight on it?

Doesn’t sound like 7 is a lucky number anymore

machine learning suspension

all fun and games until your battery runs out half way down a double black technical trail.XD

i like where it is going but having 6 separate batteries one bike is just wrong. Still needs some work.

Why bother ? I've got a boxxer team coil and debonair forks and the compression dial didnt do anything on either of them !. Maybe a bit of quality control on your existing products before making new ones eh.

Ha yeah I will stick to what works......Fox suspension.

Welcome to the new dawn of $15K+ bikes. ugh

So bikes can cost like cars now...

I’d rather buy a scrambler/off road motorcycle instead. This is a luxury we dont need.

Imagine pro xc racers get to a race in Middle Africa with no power then they turn up “oh no my drivetrain, fork, shock and dropper post aren’t charged”

coming at 5k$😂

Would anyone here like to sponsor a GoFundMe account so I can have this on my S-Works Enduro? I'd be genuinely grateful🤣🤭

That’s amazing however it’s on ROCKSHOXs and ROCKSHOX is Shram so I’ll never ride with is! Sorry but fox and Shimano is king 👑

So this will be good for people who can’t tune their own suspension? What if you want to customize the feel of the bike instead of have these programmers tell you how the bike should feel? Seems gimmicky. I will forgo the extra cost and complexity and maintenance.

Sram has had some good products over the years. Unfortunately any rockshox product is not one of them. No reason to over complicate things.

This is absurd mtb companies take ideas from cars and motor bikes but this might make cars and motor bikes take an idea from mtb

and the price is???🤣he said this is the beginning of money. this is all about money, invent tire that won't get flat that's the most important 🤣👍✌

Most of commenda are like paid army...

This is for Pro racers only! Its going to be Expensive as Hell! take a bad fall hit a rock and its broken,are you going to bye a new one,or go back to what works and regret you bought it at al! These people are working for the company dont by into al comersial BS ☠️

Great 👍 but not for me I like my bike parts that I like

1st

Thanks, I hate it.

Isn’t this a bandaid for poor suspension designs. I doubt dw bikes will use this technology.

Is this a meme or are they seriouse? There is a device for locking out your fork ALREADY it iscalled your hand.

Waste of time and money. The best suspension is coil and good damping.

I only see men in the development team! But women want equal pay! 🤔

I bet that bike cost more than a freakin dirtbike given how much axs gear it's got on it. Cool tech but ultra unnecessary and unaffordable.

it should be called "LOW IQ people attendant" or "troubles with prediction attendant" ... useless for me =)
