I notice in the description they mention air, but not in the specs. There is a decal on the fork that says "multi circuit dampening by specialized" so I'm guessing that specialized contracted with suntour for a proprietary fork.
A look at the suntour website shows various models of the NCX and some of them specify "air".
I can only say that the fork is tight, quiet, and serves the intended purpose.
Thanks avidone1! I know what the specs say -- it's the reference to air fork in the 'features' description that has me curious!
Please don't take any trouble, but if you could be bothered you could easily check: one of your fork legs will have the lockout on top, the other will have either a turn dial for preload or removable top cap under which is a device to turn for preload (coil spring in either case) or it will have a removable top cap under which is an air valve (air spring). I'd be interested to know which. As I say, if it's a bother don't bother!
