I have one on my Hemlock. It seems to work just fine, The bike runs fine with no floodgate at all and i have just left the rebound in the middle..
According to Cy it works better with the 6" rocker but it works just fine with the 4" i'm using.
I should get round to riding it down the same trail and messing with the settings i suppose.
It handles drops really well and the reason a chose the 4" rocker was so not to be completely isolated from the trail, so in that respect i'm impressed.

There is a world beyond Fox..

Plus its better looking!

I had one on my bullit for a while - sad attempt to lighten it & reduce travel (then I bought a Trance instead !)

Worked fine, though damping wasn't that "subtle" (oooh, get me !)

(It's in the spares box somewhere. If you're interested in a (little) used one, let me know what size you want & I can check tonight what mine is)

I ran one on my old Haro X-1 (6" single pivot) Reliable, fairly plush, the platform damping worked well, it was a huge improvement on x-fusion that was factory fitted. I'd recommend it.
