It really is so similar on the surface, and so different in reality. Both bikes are obviously products of their environment - don't think the SST would be as happy a camper on the Shore. I will say for the SST that it's rear travel is opposite of what the Darco seems like - it's surprisingly bottomless for being so little on paper. Adam Prosise charges hard enough for that coil, but I didn't like it and was much happier once I switched to the Super Deluxe Ultimate, which is in no way too much shock for it.
