Will someone explain the difference (additional benefit) to the PUSH race upgrade as compared to the standard valving upgrade since it costs like ~40-50 more (can't remember quite how much)??

How do the reservoir valve and replacement shims change the feeling of the shock as compared to the regular valving upgrade?

It was explained to me by Darren of PUSH that it adds high/low speed rebound control.

While we are talking push industries:

I got my shock done full Race by Push. (it was due anyway)

So, what about set up for RCs ? Can we get a review or tutorial going here. I've never really had it explained to me proper like.


What I've done:

Choosing springs: I put the spring on by giving it like two full rotations w/ the collar. I sit on the bike and hopefully it compresses the spring through about 1/3 of the shafts total travel. (measured by the rubber stopper moving) I go higher/lower as needed. Running a 550# now

Rebound: I try to make it so I can hop OK. And so it doesn't feel like I hit the ejection button on drops...

Compression: I back it off. And leave it off. Maybe like a turn or two at most. Seems like all RC problems stem from compression being set too high... I've got a second RC for DH/Backup. It was modified by a guy who shuts the compression feature out 100%. But it rides great.

Hows that sound ?
