Review: The EXT Vaia USD Fork is Extra Adjustable, But Lacks Consistency
My Ext Era v2.1 has a top out as well. You can only really feel it when popping the front wheel off the ground. But it's an issue that shouldn't be present, especially on "high end" suspension.

Review: EXT Vecta Coil Shock - Boutique Suspension at a Lower Price
Seems EXT needs to rethink their "under-sprung and over-damped" tuning philosophy. Reviews and user feedback commonly push back against this setup. My experience with the Storia v3 was no different.

First Look: The Forbidden Reya is Not Your Ordinary XC Bike
No problems with anything functional on my Dreadnought v2 but just peeled off a ridewrap piece and it took some paint with it.

Got a small first aid kit in mine. Really pays off when you need it.
