WP Xplor - Tintic Reds CV Upgrade
Fits KTM · Husqvarna · GasGas · Sherco · see allDrop-in mid-valve replacement for the WP Xplor open-cartridge fork. Same cone geometry, dialed for the Xplor's damping.
Sold as a single valve. One valve in one fork leg does the full bike: it's the simpler install and still a real upgrade.
Want a valve in both legs? It can be done, but it takes a few more parts: a Hydrostop, a couple of rebound needles, and possibly others we don't carry yet. Your tuner can walk you through it. We may offer a complete two-valve kit down the road; for now, we support the single-valve setup.
- 1 × Tintic cone valve, machined and assembled in Pleasant Grove, Utah
- 1 × piston band (replacement for the stock band)
- Install reference card

Cone-valves are installed by a qualified suspension tuner in roughly 90 minutes. Read the install guide, or have us ship direct to your tuner.
Do I need one kit or two for my bike?
One pair does the full bike for most forks. Those kits ship as a pair, one valve per fork leg, because both legs need to be valved to keep the chassis balanced. Two kits sell as a single valve. The WP Xact air fork carries all its damping in one leg, so one valve does the bike. On the WP Xplor, one valve in one leg is the setup we support: it's the simpler install and still a real upgrade. A valve in each leg is possible but takes extra parts, such as a Hydrostop and rebound needles, so talk to your tuner. We may offer a complete two-valve Xplor kit in the future.
Can I install it myself?
We recommend a qualified suspension tuner. Installation replaces the mid-valve and requires opening the cartridge, setting the shim stack, and fresh oil. A tuner with the right tools does it cleanly in about 90 minutes. Without those tools and that experience, you can damage parts that are expensive to replace.
