The shock is surprisingly plush and sensative and has seemed durable to my heavy hits. Feels a whole world more responsive than the vivid, which it has to be said is a poor choice on this frame as you cant really reach the rebound adjuster due to the rear linkage.
No problem with the fox (or a cane creek) its all at the top end

 Lookin good, but i liked it better with the more purposeful looking coil shock.

 How is the DHX Air on that?

 ever?
