Lefty Hybrid
The best of both worlds- needle bearing combined with Glide Bearing and wiper seal. Now completely sealed against the elements( e.g. water, dirt).
You have still the stiction free needle bearing plus glide bearing assists in supporting lower leg for added stiffness in deep travel. That means also that you have a self reseting Needlebearing and a easier set up.
The damper durability also improved due to alloy oil cap with glides bearings and urethan cup seals. The new 2015 damper features a new Wide Mouth Piston which increases oil flow, resulting in improved small bump sensitivity and high speed plushness.
