Ha. Great point. Especially with crazy short stays. Working in a suspension
business one of the most common complaints we heard regarding DH bike shocks
was "harsh bottoming". But when we'd look at the shock the bottom out bumper
would be untouched (where bikes that bottom regularly eat them).
Most common issue? Tire bottoming hard on seat (too low/rearward).
A distant second most common reason was chainguide/bash combos that had spun
and were restricting the swingarm.
