There is one medium frame identical to yours on pinkbike. I don't know if you have checked it out. Good luck.

2015 Specialized S-Works Demo - Mont Sainte Anne World Cup
I would like to explain why I hate specialized, and to be clear, I am talking about the company and not its bikes. I currently own a specialized enduro from around 06-07, a big hit 2 from 08. A Santa cruz Heckler (Around 2011) and a sinister R9. I liked both the enduro and the big hit. But I still hate specialized. I will admit they have a pretty damn good warranty department tho. Specialized has been known to use brutal strong-arm tactics to obliterate competitors (and by competitors I mean small time local bike shops who can't stand up to them and who are also no threat whatsoever...)

-there is also a lot more where this came from. Just look.
The third link mentions that specialized was responsible for putting mountain cycle out of business. As heavy as they were, mountain cycles were some pretty sweet plow bikes. The company is one gigantically colossal asshole.

California Dreaming: DVO Test Sessions
I am not sure you understand why they are not making a big deal about this fork failure. For another company, like fox, who has established themselves as a top player in the suspension world, a failure of this caliber would be something to make a big deal about. That is because Fox IS a big company who HAS huge success. Their forks have also been out for a long time - meaning, they have already fixed their problems. DVO is a company who is just starting out. Mistakes such as this one are expected in such a new company. They seem very eager to fix any problems this fork has and also willing to admit when something goes wrong. I look forward to seeing where they go. Their transparency is as impressive as their attitude. I am currently saving up for a canfield jedi and Dvo emerald combo package. It looks SWEET.
Keep shredding DVO!!!
