Overview
The Selva V is Formula's newest 35 mm single-crown enduro fork with the low-friction V air spring, 160–180 mm travel and a claimed 2,030 g.
The Selva is Formula's single-crown 35 mm trail and enduro fork family, built around the drop-in damping cartridge with Internal Floating Technology and the Compression Tuning System (CTS), whose interchangeable valves change the compression character of the fork.
The Selva V is the newest version, developed on the long, rocky trails near Formula's Tuscan factory. It adds the all-new V air spring with a floating piston and a concentric bypass valve that fills positive and negative chambers from one valve, plus redesigned lowers; Formula calls it the lowest-friction fork it has ever made.

- 160/170/180 mm travel, 35 mm stanchions, 43 mm offset
