Strengths:    good rebound

Weaknesses:    wish it could "lock" a little more

Bottom Line:   
great shock, over all use is great.It can get to a soft feel, or to its lock out feature, this shock seems to be a great set up. For the money this is one of the better shocks out there. quality is great and adjustability is good.Just wish it would lock out a little harder.

Strengths:    significantly reduces peddal bob

Weaknesses:    None so far

Bottom Line:   
Until now the Fox Talas was the only rr shock that would fit the Stumpjumper. Now with the Monarch there is another choice. This shock blows away the Talas. Stiffer on uphills yet smooth over rocks and roots. There is a noticable
difference in my riding . Way less peddal bob...nice. So far I love it....no complaints.....
