ROCKSHOX suspension fork 29" ZEB Ultimate Charger 3.1 Flight Attendant 170 mm DebonAir+ ButterCups BOOST 44 mm Offset Small Crown tapered black | 2025
Built for the best riders, ridden on the toughest trails. With Flight Attendant, RockShox redefines the Zeb Ultimate.
With the new ZEB Ultimate Flight Attendant you don't push the limits of physics, but the fork raises the limit of what is possible to a new level. With this evolution of the single crown fork, even the toughest enduro tracks in the world are within your reach.
The ground-breaking automatic Charger 3.1 Flight Attendant suspension system has an improved algorithm with a completely new personalization to always get the most out of your suspension fork.
In addition to the Charger 3.1 Flight Attendant shock, the fork also features the perfectly functioning DebonAir+ air spring, vibration-damping ButterCups and an extremely stiff and steering-precise 38 mm chassis. So that you always have the right balance of comfort, control and maximum speed.
38 mm chassis
A robust chassis design for more stiffness and optimum steering precision.
Ultimate Bushing Package
The "Ultimate Bushing" package maximizes bushing overlap, reduces friction and ensures the best possible handling.
Launch Control
This function gives you the perfect start to your race. Your suspension is locked for a period of time defined by you and then automatically switches to auto mode or when larger bumps are detected.
Fork-only update
Hardtail riders can now also enjoy the Flight Attendant System. It also works without dampers and is designed to optimize the balance between efficiency and comfort.
Customizable auto mode
With the "Pedal Disabled" option in your SRAM AXS app, riders can switch off the pedal mode. This allows you to choose between the Open and Lock position - ideal for trail or enduro riders who prefer consistent traction.
CNC crown
Lightweight, milled and anodized crown for a first-class look and durability. The ZEB is available with either a 59 mm or 63 mm outer diameter at the fork crown to fit every bike perfectly.
DebonAir+
The DebonAir+ air spring was developed to find the perfect balance between what you really need: buttery smooth response, more support throughout the travel and a fork that is higher in the travel and gives you more confidence when things get really steep.
Charger 3.1 Flight Attendant
Brilliant further development of the proven Charger 3 Flight Attendant shock. With an optimized compression range, it offers you the comfort, control and traction you need to master even the most difficult descents all day long.
ButterCups
ButterCups filter 20% of high-frequency vibrations. This significantly reduces hand and arm fatigue, so you feel fresher for longer and have more control.
Maxima Plush Damping Fluid
The best suspension needs the best oil. Maxima Plush is designed to reduce suspension wear, friction and noise.
Maxle Stealth
Very light thru axle which can be fitted and removed with a 6 mm hexagon socket. In addition to a clean look, it also saves some weight on the unsprung mass.
Bottomless tokens
Enables individual adjustment of the air chamber size. This allows you to perfectly match the spring characteristics of your fork to your riding style.
BOOST
An axle standard with 110 mm width and 15 mm thru axle. The hub body has been widened by 10 mm, allowing for a flatter spoke angle and thus a stable and stiff wheel.
Bolt-in torque caps
Torque caps reinforce the connection between the hub and the fork dropout through an enlarged surface that connects the two. This creates a stronger and stiffer interface that gives you better feedback and more control. So you can concentrate on the most important connection: The one between your bike and the trail. Thanks to screw-in torque cap adapters, nothing stands in the way of using normal hub end caps.
Premium Fender
Compatible with the RockShox Premium Short Fender.
