probably too early to tell how the vivid and bos shocks are performing but a theoretical opinion is also appreciated.
I have a intense socom with a dhx5.0 It is not that I am unhappy with the performance of the dhx but I am always curious if it could be better.
To start with a price comparison. vivid 280euro, ccdb 760euro bos 600euro. All of the prices are without spring. As you can see the vivid is very cheap comparing to the others. So the vivid wins on this point.
Next thing is concept. Vivid is a twin tube with HSR, LSR and LSC
CCDB is a twin tube with HSR, LSR, HSC, LSC
bos is twin tube or de carbon? with HSC, LSC, LSR
So the ccdb has the most adjustability. But will I miss the HSC adjuster on the vivid or the HSR on the bos? what adjuster is more important.
Also last but not least I am certainly no sam hill or even not a nico vink(for those who dont know him he is a fairly succesful belgium dh racer) I just ride for fun. But am personaly interested in suspension kinematics. So will I need a ccdb or bos, probably not. But is curiousity enough motivation to spend the cash?
