Fox Live Valve Neo：无线悬架系统今日推出

第二代 Fox Live Valve 悬架系统今天推出，代号为：Neo。 Live Valve 是该品牌的电子控制悬架系统，旨在自动调整阻尼器设置，因此您无需这样做。

Fox’s second-generation Live Valve suspension system is now available wirelessly, thanks to their new proprietary Neo protocol. The Neo protocol is designed to be faster than Bluetooth, with a latency delay of around one millisecond, compared to Bluetooth’s 200 milliseconds. This makes Live Valve Neo much more responsive, and it can now switch between Open and Firm modes in as little as 1/70th of a second.

得益于新的专有 Neo 协议，Fox 的第二代 Live Valve 悬架系统现在可以无线使用。 Neo 协议的设计速度比蓝牙更快，延迟约为 1 毫秒，而蓝牙的延迟为 200 毫秒。这使得 Live Valve Neo 的响应速度更快，现在可以在短短 1/70 秒的时间内在开放模式和固定模式之间切换。

The Fox Live Valve Neo system consists of four main components: the Neo shock, two bump sensors, a battery, and a charger. The Neo shock is available in either Float X or DHX configurations, and it features a magnetic latching solenoid that switches between Open and Firm modes. The bump sensors are mounted at the brake calipers, and they measure bump force and terrain angle. The battery pops out of the shock with a small plastic latch and is charged in its dock via the supplied USB-C cable. The bump sensors use standard coin cell batteries.

Fox Live Valve Neo 系统由四个主要组件组成：Neo 减震器、两个碰撞传感器、电池和充电器。 Neo 减震器有 Float X 或 DHX 配置，并具有可在“开放”和“牢固”模式之间切换的磁力锁存螺线管。碰撞传感器安装在制动卡钳上，用于测量碰撞力和地形角度。电池通过一个小塑料闩锁从减震器中弹出，并通过随附的 USB-C 电缆在底座上充电。碰撞传感器使用标准纽扣电池。

Fox Live Valve Neo is designed to automatically adjust damper settings so you don’t have to. The system works by detecting bumps and terrain changes, and then opening or closing the damper accordingly. In Open mode, the damper is fully open, providing maximum plushness and grip. In Firm mode, the damper is partially closed, providing increased pedaling efficiency and support.

Fox Live Valve Neo 旨在自动调整阻尼器设置，因此您无需这样做。该系统的工作原理是检测颠簸和地形变化，然后相应地打开或关闭风门。在打开模式下，阻尼器完全打开，提供最大的舒适度和抓地力。在坚定模式下，阻尼器部分关闭，提供更高的踩踏效率和支撑。

Fox says that Live Valve Neo is designed to give the rider extra efficiency when it matters the most, not just on climbs, but also on the flats and descents. For example, it can firm up for extra speed when pumping, but opens when it detects a significant-enough bump. It can firm up for the takeoff of a jump, but opens for the landing. It’s also open for short technical sections during a climb when a manually locked shock would otherwise stay locked and lose traction.

Fox 表示，Live Valve Neo 的设计目的是在最重要的时候为骑手提供额外的效率，不仅是在爬坡时，而且在平地和下坡时也是如此。例如，它可以在泵送时固定以获得额外的速度，但在检测到足够大的碰撞时打开。它可以在跳跃起飞时稳固，但在着陆时打开。在爬升过程中，它也可用于短暂的技术部分，否则手动锁定的减震器将保持锁定状态并失去牵引力。

Fox decided to only use “open” and “firm” modes and omitted a third “pedal” mode because of the speed with which Live Valve Neo can switch between the two modes. This negates the need for a middle-ground setting.

Fox 决定仅使用“打开”和“牢固”模式，并省略第三个“踏板”模式，因为 Live Valve Neo 可以在两种模式之间切换的速度。这消除了中间立场的需要。
