 Yes please dont
  • 19 7
 Agreed. Don't fuck around with neils song's
  • 11 11
 the man who did this should have his hearing revoked...
  • 15 6
 Not neg propn but i kinda dig this song. Especially after riding a long day in the heavy sun.

"Old man take a look at these legs, they're all black and blue."

Meds mybe kickn in now...

Cedric you're awesome!

 To the music man... take yourself outside... look at the stars... understand if you can what good music is... then think about what you have done to one of the seminal songs of music history... be ASHAMED!
  • 5 4
 Cant please anyone with music so turn down the volume and enjoy the riding that was what the post was about....
  • 6 5
 You guys just straight butchered Neil Young... I agree with Tmackstab never do this again! Using the original "Old Man" would have been more than amazing... Just my opinion though.
  • 5 3
 I get where you guys are coming from, but it really wasn't that bad. It wasn't good by any means, but it wasn't that bad. Basically just had some slightly beefed up drums thrown over the top. Could have been much worse.
  • 13 3
 I figured the song would be hit and miss for a lot of you guys but if it really wasnt doing it for you then just focus on the epic footage of that fork going to work! Music is an expressive choice in editing and personally I really like that remix, almost as much as the original. Enjoy!
  • 3 2
 Fair enough I respect that. Truthfully I'm glad to even see some Neil Young on Pinkbike haha! Even if it was a mixed version of it. It's just you're not supposed to mess with an already perfect song.
  • 6 7
 Neil Young... Overrated...

 super stoked to watch this company go places.....the shock and fork look amazing.....I'll order a shock when they are available, but a fork, well I'm waiting for a 160 single crown which I'm hoping aint to far away.......
  • 16 0
 Inverted 160? Gotta say that would be pretty dope
  • 8 0
 We probably won't bring a long travel single crown out soon, the weight will be higher because of the tubes and the massive crown that's neede to keep things strong. But....we are thinking about it! Cheers, DVO.
  • 2 1
 Carbon crown?

 I would pay for that if it made it feasible

 Sorry about the song guys. Its one of CGs favorites and yes a 17 years old kid edited the video and I just fired him!

 Im sure this is a good vid, but if I watch that double scene thing more than a couple seconds my head explodes
  • 2 0
 Yeah, would've liked to see some reg vid or some pov from the guy following (if he could keep up).

 I found it interesting to see how he's using the brakes - short powerful squeezes rather than feathering away every now and again.

 Watching Cedric shred was insane. It literally looks like he's been riding a bicycle before he could walk. Amazingly funny guy, party on, CG.
  • 4 1
 That remix is awesome! The original version of that song is boring as hell anyway. This video really shows that fork doing some work on that course in PA. Good job to that kid if he really is only 17 years old, and great job to the DVO crew for making shit happen!
  • 8 3
 im so stoked on this company but for godsake the remix of neil young is like slapping god across the face. whatever happened to real music
  • 5 1
 That song would have never suited a bike clip in it's original form. Get over it whiners!! You all missed how Cedric ripped the sh#t out of that track!

 Style for miles

 It would be interesting to see the extent of an inverted fork. Maybe testing a low travel fork for dj or 4x. Post the results for the public, even if it fails. It would be interesting to see

 remember the shiver sc? one of the most terrifying forks I've ever ridden, so much flex...
  • 1 0
 Maybe they could correct it using the same guard/arch idea they have on their DC fork.
  • 2 0
 The riding footage is awesome though. Turn the volume down, watch CG shred the track and how he barley uses his front brake on such a burley course is ridiculous. Cheers DVO!

 Props to you guys for capturing CG and letting him ride with your products. I believe you couldn't have found a more influential spokesman, who happens to ride that fast, for your products. Also props to you guys for keeping up with customer relations and replying to posts (whether good or bad) and staying connected. "When" I can afford a rear shock, I will be buying it for these reasons alone.
  • 1 0
 Thanks buddy! We are making products for riders and you have to stay connected to your customers! Hopefully we can have ya as a DVO customer soon!

 Why are there two different songs playing at the same time in this video?
  • 1 1
 the video was made on a mac by a 16 yrs old dj
  • 3 1
 I'm usually one for remixs, but you don't touch a Neil Young classic. Couldn't watch the video because of that abomination.

 CG and DVO are both definitely awesome but my panracers are falling apart before i've even gone through 10% of the tread

 watched that earlier on a another site , watch his hands he rarely uses the front brakes cool video the fork looks like it works well
  • 2 1
 you guys need to anodize the outers gold just like the pro circuit guys do for their moto forks. I'd definitely buy one of these if it was like that

 Yo did Ronnie make that mix??? That shit was dope!!!

 Somebody please explain what the hell he does at 2:42! How the HELL does his wheel end up there!?!?

 These forks look like there guna rule any ideas on weight?
  • 1 0
 The Emerald without the CTA weighs 2950 grams. We are still deciding on which CTA version to use (med-stiff-stiffest) with the stiffest weighing in around 250 additional grams. The majority of the weight is with the oil. There's 300cc's in the damper and 100cc's in the air side. Without a lot oil, performance and reliability becomes poor. Cheers, DVO!

 I was listening to this while watching the vid... it turned it into porn instantly
