Bottom Line:
I needed a cheap and good rear shock to replace the Manitou Q L crap (very fast rebound, non adjustable). I found this X-fusion at a very good price and I bought it to use it until I have the money for a better one. I was surprised to find out that this shock is really good, it has an acceptable stability platform for climbing and a precise rebound adjust. It seems that I won't replace it anymore.
