Strengths:
Really great having a lockout and rebound adjust does help to stop you being flung up in the air on a bump
Weaknesses:
Difficult to gain an enjoyable pressure. Very easy to bottom out if pressure is slightly lower than solid. Occasionly leaks and then stops (over a week or two of tough riding)
