The new RockShox Domain is an affordable version of their burly Enduro race-ready Zeb fork. The Domain offers 38mm aluminum stanchions, 150 to 180mm of travel (150/160/170/180), 27.5″ and 29″ wheel sizes, and a 44mm fork offset. The robust single crown Domain is focused on aggressive riders seeking the demanding needs of both MTBs and E-MTBs alike.

It retails for a reasonable $549, and compared to the Zeb it weighs a tad more than 400 grams due to the use of heavier materials and a simpler damper. It features a 20omm minimum rotor size, heavier 6000 series aluminum stanchions, 15 x 110mm bolt-on thru-axle, and 1.5” tapered or 1.8” tapered steerer (OEM).

It uses the Motion Control RC damper with a low-speed compression dial and the DebonAir air spring. You can also upgrade from the flexible zip-tied fender to Zeb’s bolt-on fender.

DOMAIN RC

With bigger bikes come bigger demands. The new Domain takes cues from ZEB, our enduro specialist fork with serious credentials. The Domain offers a new burly 38mm chassis, short fender compatibility, and a confidence-inspiring DebonAir air spring matched with a reliable Motion Control RC damper. We even brought the performance of Maxima Plush damping fluid along for the ride. Nothing goes as big as Domain does in value and performance.

  • NEW 38mm chassis for increased stiffness and rider confidence
  • Motion Control RC damper featuring low-speed compression adjust with externally adjustable dual flow rebound
