It comes with Misalignment™ technology, so friction damping covers both compression and rebound. If you need more you just tighten the pivots a little bit more.

Good luck selling your 4k$ M16 now and getting your money back :rofl:
They have Intensnap™ technology (perfected over years) so that won't be a problem.

My buddy snapped his M16C swingarm first race out, so it's not just marketing either.

jeez, you act like everyone who's ever owned an mtb doesn't also own pliers, a dremel and some E-Z outs. it's not intense's fault if you don't own the proper tools.

Loris swapping back to 27.5 for VDS is a bit unexpected. I'd have thought bigger wheels would be better on the roughness but because it is so steep apparently the 29er gets in the way when shifting weight back. Maybe 29ers will have a minimum height limit...

Is orange from your part of the world @Gary ?
Different country and language (Yorkshire, England... think Peaty)
´bout 4 hours drive from me (Edinburgh). Halifax is where Orange are based, not too far from where Hope are in Barnoldswick.
