      Duration Product Used: More than 3 years
      Price Paid: $450
      Purchased At: online
      Strengths: Extremely reliable, tuneable, burly.with ti spring barely heavier than a fox, looks, PERFORMANCE!!!!
      Weaknesses: NONE!!! The weight of a fox dhx 5.0 and a dhs is only 2-3ozs. Avys are weighed with oil and bushings.
      Similar Products Tried: fox stratos manitou
      Bike Setup: Canfield F1 - Avalanche DHS Ti spring - I-9's - 888WC - middleburns etc....
      Bottom Line: This is the only shock that I will run, it has complete adjustments and is relaible. I have never blown or damaged my shock in 3 years of stupid riding and drops to flat. It can also be used as a race shock, I use it all the time. They can be rebuild and tuned as well as shimmed for rider style/weight and terrain as well as a DH set up or a FR valving.
