Roco for sure, simple and very effective.

Cane Creek Double Barrel's are the best probably, but crazy expensive.
Manitou Revox's are really good too.

The revox and the double barel are the best shock's in my opinion and both are mad expensive.

I hated my 6 way, it blew up twice, so i sold it. DHX's just feel a bit.... lifeless, i can't get the feel for them....

he said shock in the title and mentioned shocks in his post....so he means shocks.... shocks = rear shocks and forks = front shocks...u may have been confused by the guy who answered fox 40....lol

edit - i should have read the other posts as this was already explained
