Externally adjustable, click-by-click rebound damping and a position-sensitive progressive bottoming system with factory set compression. The R cartridge jams an incredible amount of performance into a lightweight package.

Strengths: This shock is really cool the bike that i have it on is used for downhill and light cross country country and this shock is great for this type of riding because it has an ample amount of travel and can take pretty much anything you trow at it unless its over 15 20 feet witch isnt huge but its pretty good. as for a cross country rider its great because it has foxs new technology that senses wether pressure is coming from the rider in witch case it makes the shock hard or if its coming from underneath making it soft
Weaknesses: None so far
Bottom Line:
Great buy for people who like to bike up the mountain then ride down whithout restrictions to what trail you can go on
Bike Setup: Jamis XAM 1.0 easton setpost and handle bars hayes brake levers and calipers eight inch disk in front 7 in rear Truvativ hozfeller cranks mavic rims shimano hubs 50/50 pedals and Maxxis hookworm 2.35
