How well this works for the CC compared to other gravel forks is up for debate but if they said riders couldn’t tell the difference I find that compelling. I’d have a hard time believing they don’t already have the performance metrics for all the other gravel forks on the market to compare.

The comment about air damping was just that cane creek knows how to do air damping not that this fork has it, perhaps it does, I’m not sure any of us know here.
Has anyone claimed forks need oil damping?
On a side note, has anyone gone to their website to see what they claim? Maybe this is easy to answer
Skimmed through website including downloadable pdf manual, saw no mention of damping
I have to ask, do you work for cane creek or something???
