Hmm, its true about the argyles, the 409 I think is brilliant, but the 302-318 is just so so. Pike is bril to. But again, i'd take a 07 dj1 over a argyle.

I really need help on this one; i'm having rebound problems on my 08 66RCV, on the "carpark test" they feel great with fairly quick rebound but not feeling like they could ever top out, but as soon as i'm maybe 50-100m into the DH run, they start feeling like they're topping out really violently but only over small bumps, (landing from big hits they feel great), is it an air pressure problem and if so could you all share your air pressures in both valves and how fast you set your rebound.
Any inout would be really appreciated, cheers

it feels good when set up well but will never feel like the coil, same as any other air shock. btw, theyre both great

also, if it's of any use, i run the compression preload with no air in it and at softest compression.

If you haven't already, set sag, put a zip tie around the stanchion and sit on bike, take a light pedal around in gear 1 on a flat smooth surface so it will sit in to it's sag, just sitting on it isn't very accurate. and measure how much sag you have, you should have 20-30% 35mm-60mm. You can put a maximum of 15 psi in each side if needed. If you have already set sag, then play around with slowing down the rebound a bit each ride, trust me it helps to play around and see what feels best, and what doesn't.

okay, cheers for the advice man, any other guidance from fellow 66 owners would be really helpful.

i just played round with it till the i found the setting where the rebound was a bit faster than the shock and about the same compression Smile

i gots the 05 ones by the way Smile

and about the air pressure, i have like 20something psi in each leg.
