After tinkering a bit with the settings that DVO recommended, this thing rocks (Topaz). Just had to mess with sag a bit. As I wrote in another thread, I'm using full travel with no harsh bottoming at all. Small bump compliance is great, feels like I'm running my rear tire with 5 psi in it. I had to look down a few times because small bumps were virtually nonexistent on the rear.

My Pike up front is good, but really thinking about the Diamond if it's as good as the Topaz. But damn it's rough to think I need to drop another 1k on this 4 month old rig :/

Santa Cruz Hightower:
(Approx.190 lbs geared up weight)
- 2 spacers postive/ 1 spacer neg
- 215psi main canister/190psi bladder
- Rebound 3 clicks from full fast
- Sag approx. 25-26%

Glad the settings are working good for you, you need anymore help just hit me up.

Finalgear, do you know if there is a way to convert my non-boost Diamond to coil?
If not, will you guys make a conversion kit at some point, as I read there was some coil awesomeness in the works?

It's about time for me to get a new shock for my Bottlerocket and the DVO jade has crossed my mind many times. Anyone have experience with it? Love it? Hate it? Other contenders are Fox DHX, Rockshox Vivid, etc but I want to try something new.

Saw this earlier today, anyone know what travel they are? Have they just changed the arch to accommodate a 29" wheel

Can a 2015 Diamond (160mm) be extended to 170?

That sounds like a solid bet.
