Bottom Line:
It is ok and has performed well on trails and mountains. I don't have any complaints. It is very similar to other shocks i have tried. I don't know how long it can take abuse. Overall a very good shock.

Strengths:
Cool design! "Compression" and "Rebound" adjusters. Can handle jumps and drops. Very nice play. Very good value for money.
Weaknesses:
Weaknesses? I think it's all strengths.
Bike Setup:
Simple downhill bike! ^_^
Bottom Line:
It can handle pretty good jumps and drops. Very nice play. Definitely for downhill maniacs. Very outstanding performance for such a low price (P 3,500). If your looking for a good rear suspension that can take up the beating, try the DNM BURNER-RC. It's definitely one of the coolest rear suspension available today. This suspension won't let you down! Try it for yourself....

topgear bike shop
Strengths:
The rear shock actually works (in spite of DNM's less than stellar reputation in these parts; other riders mockingly define DNM as "does not move") Plush. Adjustable rebound, preload and compression (simulates lock out mode too). Modeled after theold Fox RC models. Cheap. Looks cool actually
I've been using (and occasionally abusing) this shock for almost two years now and it still hasn't failed me - from epic rides to urban sessions and DH runs.
I find it plusher and more fun to use than other (more expensive) brands although i am not by any means a dedictated free rider or a downhiller. For my riding preferences all mountain/aggressive trail XC riding it's been a blast to use
DNM actually made a decent (dare i say very satisfactory) rear shock with this one
