DT Swiss F535 Incontrol Lever 29" Boost Tapered Rake 44 mm fork

Find the flow during your all mountain ride.

The F 535 has been reimagined to focus on the essentials: finding the flow during your All-Mountain ride. Equipped with a lever at hand, the fork can be locked to get to the most remote trails with ease. Once at the top, flip the lever, opening the portal to flow.


Features

  • The lever is used to lock and open the compression damping of the fork.
  • The crown covers from the previous version have been removed, enabling easier compression and rebound damping as well as air pressure setup.
  • The 35 mm stanchions offer the right balance between weight and stiffness for all mountain use.

Technologies

LINEAIR
LINEAIR is a dual-air chamber system. Through the size of the air chambers and position of the bypass, the characteristic of the spring curve is specifically tuned to meet the needs of XC riders. A low breakaway force for traction, a linear but flatter mid-stroke section that allows you to float over root carpets and an end progression to eat the big hits.
The LINEAIR system consists of a bypass located in the air chamber. The bypass ensures that the pressure inside the negative air chamber is higher than in the positive air chamber when the fork is fully extended. This reduces the breakaway force.

INControl
Compression damping is defined by the amount of oil which can flow in different channels. The smaller the channels, the higher the flow resistance and the higher the damping. INCONTROL damping provides on-the-fly damping adjustments offering the perfect compression tune for every riding situation by opening and closing different channels.

  • In OPEN mode, the oil flows through the low- and high-speed compression channels. OPEN mode offers sensitivity and therefore a lot of traction. To meet all preferences, the adjustment needle allows the LSC channel to be closed in stages, increasing the LSC and resulting in a firmer feeling.
  • DRIVE mode closes the LSC channel. All the oil flows through the HSC channel. The shims of the HSC open at a certain force, resulting in higher compression damping which reduces energy loss but maintains traction on rocky uneven uphills. Drive mode is not available for the F 535 fork.
  • When LOCK mode is set, a slider closes the LSC and HSC oil channels. Ideal for sprinting situations on even tracks where maximum power transmission is key. A blow-off valve protects rider and equipment from unexpected hits.

APT
The APT (Adaptable Progression Tune) system allows the rider to adjust the progression of the air spring curve by adding or removing volume spacers in the air chamber of the fork. This enables riders to adjust their spring curve to their riding style and the trails they are riding. The beauty of the system lies in the fact that the suppleness of the fork is unaffected, regardless of the setting chosen.
