Edit: Here is a review. "Fox was right to wait until Live Valve was thoroughly proven before they released it. I imagined that I'd be concluding with a carefully scripted paragraph that weighed its astronomical retail price against its potential benefits. The bottom line is that Live Valve represents the most useful and important suspension innovation to emerge during a decade of boring gradual improvements. It works great, and I don't want to ride without it."

I've done a lot of watching reviews on the Polaris to see if the new Fox Live Valve shocks really worked, or were just some cheesy gimmick...
And everyone seems to say they really do work...

Yeah. I'm pretty optimistic for their arrival in our realm. Hopefully they aren't outrageously expensive as aftermarket

given the price they mentioned for the mtb suspension I wouldn’t hold my breath.

also I see someone mentioning the computer stuff was embedded in the car computers and wouldn’t be available as aftermarket, but maybe in a few years

The live valve 36 fork cost is 3-4x what a standard 36 fork is. Interested to see how that translates to the raptor shocks price.
