Loving the stumpy. Makes me want to get another one now that I could purchase a rear shock that I like.

I've had my DVO stuff for a little while now and love it, but I think it's time I give the fork a little love. Suggestions on oil I should use? I called and Ronnie told whoever I was on the phone with that I could use Motul, but idk who I'm even supposed to get that from. I'd rather purchase a brand that I can actually buy from one of my distributors.

Go to a local moto shop and pick up whatever 7.5 weight oil they recommend. You'll get a quart (lifetime supply) of it for like $12. It'll be fine.

What are people's thoughts on the new onyx fork, would you change to them from emeralds?

The fork is not out yet we are looking at a release around the end of September, with that being said it is a bad ass fork its a bigger diamond and we also have a ONYX SC coming out with 180mm of travel and 20mm through axle, now for your question they are two different forks some like inverted and some like conventional the killer news is that you can take the Onyx damper and put it into the Emerald if you want to make the Emerald a little lighter.

I like the sound of that I'm currently on emeralds and I love them, but a tad heavier so anything that can reduce that weight would be great

Where and when would I be able to look out for the damper?

ONYX SC?! Dammit to hell I JUST bought a Diamond and I love it.

What's the weight and axle dimensions on the Onyx SC? My front wheels will convert to 20x110...
