Overview
Super Deluxe Ultimate Flight Attendant blends race-proven efficiency with a chassis that is easily tuned to match any frame, creating a versatile package built for any trail, any time. The all-new LinearXL air spring keeps the ride feel consistent and predictable, while the redesigned Flight Attendant RC3 electronic damper manages automatic Open, Pedal, and Firm compression states with an independent LSC adjust. With a Charger 3.2-matched main piston tune and a higher-pressure-capable chassis, this D1 version targets premium trail, enduro, and e-MTB builds that want smart suspension control without giving up descending support.
