So I have officially decided that i can't afford a romic or 6-way for my Azonic Recoil, and right now i have a Fox on it, and it feels fairly Sh!tty and I am ready for something new, any opinions on getting your shock sent into Push, oh and are there any other options for around the same price that i can do???

Push it... Push it good.....Push it real good. dut dadada dut duhduhdadada...

I would take the PUSH upgrade over buying a new shock even if price isn't the only concern. I payed more for my Romic (custom valved btw) than I did for my PUSH upgrade and can honestly say I prefer the PUSH systems much much more. The custom Romic was a big upgrade over the stock Vanilla RC, but the difference between the Romic and PUSH was even greater yet. I've been on my PUSH since Jan/Feb or so and have zero complaints and much praise for Darren's work and service.

Do it! I've got two Pushed Fox RC's - they are the best shocks I've had on my bikes (Romics before) - incredible performance at a very reasonable price

best investment you could make in your bike (IMHO)

Of those of you who have gone the PUSH route, which upgrade did you have done? I have a Vanilla RC on my '02 Yeti DH-9 and am really appreciating the stable platform shock I have on my ASX (5th Element). In fact, I've raced the ASX a few times at pedally courses, but was wishing for the stability of the DH-9, if only it wouldn't bob like a pig anytime you want to motor.

Suggestions?

Both of mine (on my Turner XCE & RFX) got the Vanilla RC Race System - the full-boat, all-the-bells&whistles treatment - incredible! custom tuned for your weight & riding style

and so far (about 6 months now) 100% reliability....

Did the "race" upgrade include SP upgrades, too?

 

[Toshi]

does anyone have experience with both push and avalanche?

I have a Pushed Vanilla on the Big Hit and a Avalanche on the Fly. The Avy is better for drops but the Push does well climbing and DH. Push it... push it real good dada dadaaadaa. Like it was said before...

why?

does the avy bob? does the push blow through its travel on drops?

ive been running a straight 8 for a couple of years and have NO problems with the lawlill bobbing under power, u sure its not the FRONT end doing the bouncing?

 

[prerogative]

Push it ! ! ! I had the Race System / 'Works' done on a few month old RC.

 

[Big E]

hmmmmmm. i think im tempted to push it really good on my Banshee Scream

 

[anarchyUK]

push it

I don't know what PUSH-ing it means but, I'd like to find out more. I just did a quick google and didn't find anything.

anyone want to fill me in? Sounds sweet.

it's a modification for fox shocks but Push Industries, they gut it and put in a new 2-stage piston in it, it's basically all-new internals.

Big upgrade.

 

[MtnbikeMike]

Does the works package have a pedaling platform or not?

Sure does.

 

[johnbrittain]

well i guess i am reassured as to what my choice will be, thanks! oh and btw, someone was telling me that i could possibly get a deal if i send in 3 shocks, cause my buddy has 2 rc's he wants to send in also, is that true?

 

[Kntr]

does the avy bob? does the push blow through its travel on drops?

The Avy doesn't bob when seated and climbing but does bob a little when standing and pedaling. The Push does a little better job at bob reduction when standing.

As for drops... nothing beats the Avy. The Push does a great job too but the Avy is just that much better.

I've chimed in before on this,as have many others but i gotta praise the Push again! My ASX has come to life w/the Push.I have a 9.5x3 on the way to me from fox for my DH bike and it will go to Push before it has even been ridden.
Great pedaling and somehow is totally lively and easy to bunny hop too. Excellent reliability so far.
Defenately similar groung hugging action and moto feel like my Avy had.Ultimately the Avy has greater oil capacity and larger valves for big drops and heat dissapation,but the Push feels more dialed in to my bike to me.More adjustment range on the clickers and Darrin is stoked on everyone he talks to not acting like i am a nucence to him when i call....I know Craig is the man when it comes to mfg,but Darrin is nailing it when it comes to setup-i mean have you seen him at the races w/Carter downloading runs onto his palm pilot??!!?? Yeah Craig thinks he doesn't need to do all that but it's geeting Darrin the setup experience to hook up the average guy with his shock.
Avy is all moto,but my bike and my moto really do require different setups.I think these two guys are head and shoulders above the 'other bike co's' shocks,but between the weight savings,compatability,and price;not to mention the feel, the Push beats out the Avy for me.Bam!
