currently got a DHX 4.0 air shock on my enduro (so no boost chamber valve – but it can be retro-fitted). I had it serviced by Loco and he added the air can shim to reduce the volume (added mid-travel support) which makes it feel like a new shock
benefits…its cheap and works well for me but its old technology and there are better ones out there. If i was going to buy another air shock I’d be looking at a Monarch Plus…for coil, I’d be happy enough with a cheap DHX 5.0 (at my price point)
If you want an air shock and have a choice between an RP3, an RP23 and a DHX air and the cost is comparable, go with the newest one (all imho)
