First Ride: Fox Releases New Grip X & Grip X2 Dampers
Can someone explain why dampers keep getting upgraded but air springs still seem to be basic iterations and underengineered? Maybe I'm wrong about that but it just seems like the air spring side/mechanism/engineering is ripe for some opportunity on an OEM basis, whereas the damper side is pretty well served with stock systems and benefits moreso from tuning to individual bike/rider preferences?

Review: Raaw Madonna V3 - Yes, It's Still Great
@Stebrex: there was/is some QC issue with the width of the chainstay. it varied enough that chainstay pivot bolts bottomed on themselves instead of the frame, causing a sloppy interface. i think it was exacerbated by bolts that were also generally a smidge longer than they should have been.
it's an easy fix but also annoying.

Review: Raaw Madonna V3 - Yes, It's Still Great
wonder how this compres to the spire? i love mine, but my patience with its bearings, initial chainstay pivot bolt length issue/knocking, and lack of progression seem to be waning.
maybe it's the marketing but this thing seems a little more bombproof and reliable, in terms of service? how would its ride feel compare?
