Invert

Haven’t ridden it yet but looks amazing and the Black Friday sale made them irresistible. Can’t wait to get them installed.

Fitment on Gen2 Trek checkpoint not great

Does not fit flush into headtube... Brian in tech support said it should be fine. Rides great just don't want this to cause problems down the road.

Just the right amount of squish

I have about 100 miles on the invert SL and am very pleased. Its just the right amount of squish to smooth out some of the chunkier gravel on my weekly laps, but not overly heavy and complicated. I like the idea of lower maintenance and didn't need another damper to maintain. I didn't have any negative handling traits when adding the 30mm version to my non-suspension correctly gravel bike. The bike feels more confidence inspiring with the Invert as compared to my traditional carbon gravel fork. I am running slightly higher PSI than recommended to prevent most bottom-outs and feels that strikes a great balance between compliance and unwanted motion. 5% over my body weight and i can still make it bottom if i want to, but have only had 1 true bottom on a ride after making that adjustment. I've been on the fence of thinking suspension on a gravel bike was overkill, bit i think the invert strikes a great balance of being just enough. I ended up using a REAR 140mm flat to post mount adapter that i had on hand, rather than needing a new caliper when i made the install.
