Early on in the project it was clear to EXT’s team that they wouldn’t be satisfied with simply adding an air can to their existing coil-shock structure. High performance necessitated a complete ground up re-design. Thus, EXT took the innovative dual-positive air chamber concept made for the Era fork and formatted a new version of it to fit the unique needs of the Aria application.

Product Description
Aria feels very sensitive on small bumps, thanks to the very low friction seal, the proprietary surface coating and a very large negative volume, while never being too stiff over big hits. EXT Aria provides the same level of damping control that the coil provides, and it’s truly unique.
The control and adjustability given by the dual positive chamber is much more accurate and precise than volume spacers, allowing the rider to focus on just a specific part of the stroke. The rider will feel more support in the middle part of the stroke, without having the typical excessive force increase of the single chamber air spring.
