| FavoriteTrail: | timberland |
| Duration Product Used: | 3 months |
| Price Paid: | $80 |
| Purchased At: | ross, cartimar |
| Strengths: | seems to be built tough, works like any other shock. They claim to be 340 grams, more than 100 grams lighter than other coil shocks. nice play. |
| Weaknesses: | it is known here to be inexpensive using less than superior materials. |
| Similar Products Tried: | manitou metel, fox float |
| Bike Setup: | vision cruizer, fox forks, avid and sram parts. |
| 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. |

| FavoriteTrail: | Everything! |
| Duration Product Used: | 6 months |
| Price Paid: | $70 |
| Purchased At: | Raon |
| 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.... |

| FavoriteTrail: | los banos and bataan trails |
| Duration Product Used: | 2 Years |
| Price Paid: | $76 |
| Purchased At: | 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 |
| Weaknesses: | For its price i couldn't actually find one. Heavier than othet shocks. yeah that's it i guess |
| Similar Products Tried: | cheaper DNM models, kind shock, Giant's proprietary POS |
| Bike Setup: | Giant Warp all mountain/aggro trail bike set up |
| Bottom Line: | 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 |
