The Tuesday Tune Ep 22 - Rockshox's Monarch Plus and Super Deluxe

This week in the Vorsprung workshop, we take a look inside the current generations of two very similarly-intended air shocks from Rockshox - the Monarch Plus and the newer, metric-sizing-only Super Deluxe. On the surface, they have many similarities, but digging a little deeper we can see many differences in the details, including damper shaft size, adjuster configuration, piston layout, and other modifications to increase performance and robustness, but like all things, no shock is beyond criticism.
This week's monotone proudly sponsored by An Annoying Cold.
