California Dreaming: DVO Test Sessions
how are the mid shaft speeds controlled in Emerald or Jade? Is there separate mid speed shim stack in the piston of the damper shaft?

It seems that it is more than easy to pull off the damping unit from DVO fork or shock to adjust the shim stack. Can you do the same with Marzo,RS or FOX??? There is a huge saving when you are able to make your own shim stacks without sending damper to some "expert" with 100$/hour charge, and just after that noticing that you still need the stack tweaked a bit to a way or another.
I think it is still overpriced product,basicly everything inside the fork/shock is just miniature copy from mx world,excluding the possibility of removing damping unit without taking whole rearshock apart. Damping units are very similar to Showa "base valve" with floating piston etc...

Asterisk braces are worth every penny in my opinion.They are very well adjustable.you can make them fit by turnin screws which are tightening the brace around shin and thigh.Sizetable is reliable.I bought m-sized braces according the table,and they fit perfectly after proper adjusting. Bad thing is that it takes few weeks to get used to the feeling of the braces,because they have to be tightened well to gain proper support for the knee.i was about 4 months off the bike. Buy them,you wont regret.
